What fire safety services do you need?
Do you have the right fire alarms?
Your fire alarms must meet BS 5839 standards—that’s the official rulebook for how they should be designed and installed. Getting this right is often a requirement for your insurance.
Early detection saves lives and prevents a small fire from becoming a disaster. We can install systems that fit your property perfectly, including wireless options that are ideal for historic buildings where you want to avoid drilling into walls. A reliable alarm gives everyone the time they need to get out safely.
Are your fire extinguishers and suppression systems correct?
Not all fires are the same, which is why you need the right type of extinguisher. Some fires need water, while others require foam or gas. Our team assesses your building and equips you with the right tools for your specific risks. For extra protection, we can also install systems like automatic sprinklers that activate instantly to stop a fire from spreading.
Is your emergency lighting and signage clear?
When an alarm goes off, people need to know where to go. Clear signs and bright emergency lighting guide them to safety, which is crucial in larger or complex buildings.
Emergency lights are designed to stay on during a power outage, lighting up escape routes. The Fire Safety Order requires you to have these systems checked regularly. We can handle this for you, so you know they’ll work when it matters most.
Is CCTV still an effective deterrent?
Absolutely. Modern CCTV does more than just record what happens; it actively discourages criminals. It’s a powerful tool for preventing issues before they start.
Visible cameras in places like industrial estates or retail car parks can significantly reduce theft. Plus, you can monitor the live feed from your phone, giving you peace of mind whether you're on-site or away. We install high-definition systems that give you a clear view of your entire property, with no blind spots.
What should you look for in an intruder alarm?
You need a reliable, professional-grade alarm that detects break-ins immediately. These systems alert you or a monitoring team right away, ensuring a fast response. In Maidstone’s commercial areas, where break-ins are more common at night, a good alarm is essential. We install systems tailored to your building to prevent false alarms while providing rapid alerts when needed.
Who needs access control?
Access control is perfect for businesses in multi-tenant buildings or those with sensitive areas like stock rooms or server rooms. It allows you to control exactly who can enter specific areas using key cards, codes, or biometric scanners. This helps keep unauthorised people out and provides a log of who has entered, which is great for reducing internal theft and improving compliance.
What are the fire and security risks in Maidstone?
For most businesses, the biggest risks aren't dramatic heists; they're failing to meet legal standards or underestimating the cost of a fire. A slip-up can lead to heavy fines or even a temporary shutdown.
Maidstone has a unique mix of buildings. Older sites might have outdated wiring that makes fire detection tricky, while newer hubs like Eclipse Park face challenges with high foot traffic and potential theft. In retail areas like Fremlin Walk, for example, break-ins are a constant worry.
We’ve seen firsthand how a fire or security breach can disrupt a local company, leading to lost stock and insurance headaches. Spotting these risks early is the key to avoiding problems down the line.
Why is ongoing maintenance so important?
Regular maintenance isn’tjust a good idea—it's a legal requirement under the Fire Safety Order. It's the only way to be sure your systems will work in an emergency. Skipping checks can leave you unprotected and non-compliant.
Dust, wear and tear, and even minor building work can cause system failures. A maintenance contract with us includes scheduled checks, 24/7 emergency support, and digital records to prove you’re meeting your legal duties. It gives you confidence that you’re always protected.
Do you work with listed buildings in Maidstone?
Yes, we have extensive experience with Maidstone's unique historic properties. We specialise in installing modern, compliant systems, such as wireless fire alarms, that provide effective protection without damaging the building's important architectural character.
