Fire Alarm System INstallation
A suitable fire alarm system is an essential element for protecting life and property and is a necessity in most buildings to ensure that building occupants are alerted to a fire situation as early as possible.
Choosing a dedicated and competent supplier to design and install your fire alarm system is paramount to ensure that the system is tailored to the specific risks in your premises, is optimised to provide the earliest possible warning of fire to all occupants and is compliant with current legislation and installation codes of practice.
RT Security Solutions offers a comprehensive design, installation, commissioning and maintenance package (accredited to BAFE SP203-1) for all fire detection systems. We work with industry-leading equipment manufacturers to ensure that we can provide world-class fire safety systems which utilise the latest technologies to keep you, your employees and your property safe.
Ensure your company follows the BS 52 66-1 Regulations on Emergency lighting.
A minimum duration of three hours should be used for emergency lighting if premises are not expected to be evacuated immediately in the event of a supply failure, such as sleeping accommodation or places of entertainment, or if the premises are expected to be reoccupied when the supply is restored without waiting for batteries to recharge.
A minimum duration of one hour should be used only if the premises are expected to be evacuated immediately on supply failure and not reoccupied until full capacity has been restored to the batteries.”
It is imperative that as a UK company you comply with the UK Guidelines set out above. By doing so, it means a building can be re-entered after there has been some kind of mains failure as there is still significant emergency lighting in place to meet the minimum requirements.
