Fire Alarm Installation in Swindon

We install BS 5839-compliant fire alarm systems for commercial, industrial and public sector buildings across Swindon and Wiltshire. Our BAFE SP203-1 and NSI Fire Gold accredited engineers design and install conventional, addressable and networked fire alarm systems that meet current regulations and provide reliable life safety protection.

From single-building installations to multi-site programmes, we work with facilities managers, responsible persons and building owners who need compliant fire detection systems. Our manufacturer-trained team handles everything from initial design through to commissioning and handover documentation.

What Does Fire Alarm Installation Include?

Our fire alarm installation service covers complete system design, supply and commissioning to BS 5839-1:2017 standards. We start with a detailed site survey to assess detection requirements, escape routes and building layout before designing a system that meets your specific fire safety obligations.

Installation includes all detection devices, control panels, sounders, manual call points and associated cabling. We provide full commissioning, testing and certification upon completion, along with operation and maintenance manuals. Once commissioned, we can arrange ongoing maintenance to keep your system compliant and operational.

How Long Does Installation Take?

Installation timescales depend on building size, system complexity and access requirements. A typical single-floor office installation takes 2-3 days, while larger multi-floor buildings may require 1-2 weeks. We provide detailed programmes during the design phase and coordinate with other trades to minimise disruption to your operations.

What Happens After Installation?

Upon completion, we commission the entire system and provide thorough testing to verify all devices and functions operate correctly. You receive certification, operation manuals and maintenance schedules. We can also provide training for your staff on system operation and basic troubleshooting procedures.

Do You Handle Planning and Building Control?

We assist with Building Control notifications and provide technical specifications for planning applications where required. Our designs comply with current Building Regulations and we liaise directly with Building Control officers during the approval process. For complex installations, we can coordinate with fire engineers and approved inspectors.

What If Our Current System Needs Upgrading?

We regularly upgrade existing fire alarm systems that no longer meet current standards or have become unreliable. Our surveys identify which components can be retained and which require replacement. If you've had failed inspection support or experienced fault diagnosis issues, we can assess whether upgrade or replacement is the most cost-effective solution.
