Fire systems for business

OSS surveyors and directly employed engineers

The problem

Around 90% of businesses that suffer a serious fire never recover. Detection that is out of date, badly specified or unmaintained is a compliance risk and a business risk at the same time.

How it works

We start with a full fire risk assessment, then design a system in line with your building and your obligations. Installation and commissioning are handled by our own engineers, and we maintain the system afterwards - covering the crucial elements of detecting fire early, stopping it spreading and getting people out, from smoke control to phased evacuation.

Questions

Straight answers.

Do you carry out the fire risk assessment?
Yes. We start with a full assessment so the detection specified matches the real risk in the building.
How often must the system be serviced?
Fire detection systems should be serviced at least twice a year. We schedule and document it for you.
Can you take over an existing system?
Usually. We survey and commission what is there, then maintain it under contract.

  • I would like to express my gratitude for the prompt and effective resolution of the recent software issues. The speed with which the matter was addressed, and the professionalism shown throughout, kept disruption to a minimum. My thanks also to Maciek, whose expertise and knowledge were invaluable.

  • I have been quite particular in some of the location criteria and the team have worked to provide the best solution that works for us but also makes sure the system works to its best ability. They have been professional, polite & hard working, communicated really well and are a credit to the company.
    Paul Morris, Director · Utility Retail
  • I've got nothing but praise for the guys doing the install. They were very thorough, helpful and very understanding of what was happening around them, particularly in the Manchester store where there were customers constantly coming in and out of the store.
