Who Is Responsible For Fire Safety In Your Premises?

If you’re an employer, owner, landlord or occupier of a business or other non-domestic premises, you’re known as the ‘responsible person’ for fire safety. According to GOV.UK, the responsible person must carry out a fire risk assessment, put in place and maintain appropriate fire safety measures, and plan for an emergency. This applies to all workplaces and commercial premises, as well as the common areas of multi-occupied residential buildings.

A professionally installed and properly maintained fire alarm system is one of the most important ways to meet these responsibilities. Our fire risk assessments can help you understand exactly what level of detection and warning your premises needs.

Choosing The Right Fire Alarm System

Every building is different, so there is no one-size-fits-all fire alarm. The right system will depend on the size and layout of your property, how it is used, and who is inside it. A small office will have very different needs from a school, a care home or a multi-storey commercial building.

In the UK, the BS 5839 series of British Standards provides recommendations on the design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of fire detection and alarm systems in buildings. We’ll talk you through the options and design a system that suits your property and the findings of your fire risk assessment.

COMPARTMENTATION

We are qualified and experienced installers of a full range of compartmentation products. Fire compartmentation is a more advanced protection system. We recommend it for rooms especially susceptible to fire hazards, as it provides more specialised protection.

Compartmentation involves the application of a membrane or firestop system. This system can be built into doors, walls, floors, and ceilings and is intensely resistant to fire and heat. It offers a similar kind of protection as a fire door, only on a wider and more comprehensive level.

For the best in fire insulation and protection, contact our team to discuss compartmentation options for your property.

FAQs

For a commercial premises, there is no blanket legal requirement to have a fire alarm installed. A fire risk assessment should be undertaken to determine the level of cover that is required (if any). Other aspects of fire safety may be more appropriate depending on the individual commercial circumstances.  

Once a week personally. Then, once every six months, by a professional.

That depends on where it is located. Generally speaking, fire alarms are better at detecting fires when they are closest to the source of heat. Smoke alarms consistently detect fires even from across the property.
