Certified & Trusted Home Fire Safety System Installers In The Midlands
What You Should Know Before Getting A Fire Alarm System?
Worried about regulations, reliability, or what type of alarm suits your home? You’re not alone. Here are some of the most common homeowner questions answered clearly by our certified team so you can move forward with confidence and peace of mind.
Do I really need a fire alarm system in a domestic property?
Yes, a properly installed fire alarm system isn’t just a recommendation. It’s a critical safety measure BS5839-6 is a requirement in all homes. UK building regulations require smoke detectors in all new builds and most existing proprerties may need to review their installations, especially if they are more than 10 years old. More importantly, a working fire alarm system can detect danger early and give you time to act before things escalate. Whether you're asleep upstairs or away from the kitchen, it's your first line of defence in a home emergency.
What type of fire alarm is best for my home?
It depends on the size, layout, and structure of your home. Optical alarms are great for detecting smouldering fires (often from soft furnishings), while heat alarms are ideal for kitchens where smoke isn’t always a sign of danger. We carry out a full site survey to assess risk areas, then recommend the right mix, sometimes integrating several alarm types for maximum coverage and peace of mind.
Can fire alarms be installed in older or listed buildings?
Yes. Our wireless systems are ideal for heritage and period properties where minimal disruption is key. We use discreet installation techniques that avoid chasing wires through walls, so your interior remains intact. And because they are fully BS 5839 compliant, you won’t have to worry about falling short on safety or insurance requirements.
How often should I test or service my home fire alarms?
Monthly testing is advised just press the test button and listen for the alert. Beyond that, we recommend a professional inspection every 12 months to check internal components, battery levels, and system performance. If you’re on a maintenance plan, we’ll handle all of this for you, keeping your system in top condition year-round.
Are wireless fire alarm systems reliable enough for homes?
Absolutely. Modern wireless systems use encrypted, interference-resistant signals and meet the same British Standards as wired systems. They’re quicker to install, avoid damage to décor, and can be repositioned as your layout changes. We only install EN54 approved wireless systems tested for performance and durability over time.
Will installation damage my walls or decor?
No. We use skills and neat cabling techniques for a clean finish. In most domestic installs, you won’t even notice the wiring. For wireless systems, we simply mount the detectors and link them remotely. No mess, and no unnecessary disruption to your space.
What standards or regulations does my system need to meet?
All our domestic fire alarm installations are designed to meet BS 5839-6:2019 +A1:2020, which covers fire detection in dwellings. We also ensure compliance with any insurer-specific requirements and local authority rules, so you’re fully protected from both safety risks and legal oversights.
Can my system be monitored remotely or send alerts to my phone?
Yes. We offer smart fire alarms that connect to mobile apps or central monitoring centres. If an alarm is triggered, you’ll receive instant notifications — whether you’re at home, at work, or away on holiday. This gives added peace of mind, especially if your family includes children, pets, or elderly residents.
What happens if my alarm triggers a false alert?
We’ll guide you through basic steps to resolve it, and our systems include adjustable sensitivity settings to prevent common triggers from steam, cooking, or dust. If needed, we’ll send an engineer out to recalibrate the system. And if you opt for a monitored setup, our team will confirm the alert as appropriate before emergency services are dispatched.
How long does the installation process take, start to finish?
Most homes, the installation can be completed the same-day. This includes a full walk through, placement of devices, system testing, and a final handover with clear instructions. Larger properties take longer, but we always aim for minimal disruption.
