Fire Alarm Servicing and Maintenance
All our work work is carried out in conjunction with all British standards.
Ensuring that your fire alarm system is in working order at all times is vital.
Not only that, you must conform to The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order by maintaining your fire detection and alarm systems and having a schedule in place.
At Fire & Security Systems we provide a comprehensive maintenance and service package to suit every budget and scenario.
Our qualified and experienced Engineers are trained on all types of fire panels so you can be confident that when we have carried out a routine inspection, your system is in correct working order.
Within your maintenance package, you have access to an Engineer and technical support 24/7 to assist with any system faults you may experience.
