Fire Alarm Design, Installation & Commissioning
Your Requirements
RES can design install and commission your new Fire Detection and Alarm System in accordance with the relevant British Standards, in order to comply with latest Fire Regulations. This may be a full new fire alarm system or modifications to an existing fire alarm system.
We work across a variety of sectors such as in educational premises, healthcare facilities, for hotels and leisure, in business premises and offices, in residential properties, retail establishments and also manufacturing facilities.
Design
The initial design stage will often require a site visit or service visit to assess and identify the requirements. An up-to-date Fire Risk Assessment will determine the relevant category needed for a Domestic or Non-Domestic premises.
There are a variety of system types such as conventional, analogue addressable, wireless, hybrid systems and aspirating smoke detection systems. We endeavour to offer advice to our customers on what is required to make a system compliant.
We provide a detailed written quotation, usually valid for 20 days. The quotation will specify the type of system being proposed and will itemise all the parts, labour and relevant British Standards.
Schedule
On approval of the quotation, we will schedule the works with you and order the necessary parts for your project.
Depending on the scale of the work, it can be completed in one phase, or be phased across a number of visits.
