Fire Protection Devon

Arson is the single most common cause of fire on business premises and the majority of arson attacks are down to opportunistic vandalism.

A frightening statistic is that each week in the UK there are approximately 2213 arson attacks.

* 67% of fires occur outside working hours.
** Over 70% of businesses involved in a major fire either never recover or fail within three years.
*** Insurance pay outs following a fire can take months or even years.

If you haven't taken precautions to minimise the risk of fire to your business or you think your existing fire precautions are out dated, contact "Security Installation Company" to ensure that you're doing everything you can to protect your employee's and your investments.

We can provide you with a wide variety of Fire alarm systems, designed to protect your building whatever the size and usage. Typically, fire systems start with a simple single zone panel tailored to protect a small premises such as a shop or small industrial unit. Larger systems are available that can cover multiple zones, for example to protect a medium industrial unit, schools or multiple occupancy residence. All our fire panels comply with British Standard 5839, and come with a variety of features.

These include test facilities, fault monitoring, battery and mains power monitor and an evacuation facility. All the panels we supply are easy to use via a built-in key pad, plus LED display for zone and fault indications. All system's we fit are designed with either; manual break glass call points, automatic smoke or heat detectors or a combination of all three. Systems are designed dependant on their primary function dictated by the usage of the building protected - that is they can be to protect property or lives. A life protection systems are divided into four categories L1, L2, L3 and M. Property systems are split into P1 and P2.

This will determine the number and location of the different detection or callpoints required. Several different types of detectors can be used, and correct detector location and type is crucial to the correct function of any fire alarm system.

This also will affect the number and location of the sounders required. As an option, we can fit combined sounders and strobe lights. We will ensure that you have the correct level of protection for your building and occupants whatever its usage.
