Benefits Of Integrating Your Fire & Security Systems

Integrating fire and security systems creates a more efficient, coordinated safety infrastructure. During emergencies, connected systems can automate responses such as unlocking exits, directing cameras, and guiding first responders with real-time data. Centralised monitoring improves situational awareness by allowing staff to view alarms, CCTV, and access control from a single dashboard.

Fire Safety Training & Fire Safety Wardens For My Organisation

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 it is a legal requirement that all employers / responsible persons ensure that all employees are provided with adequate fire safety training. There is no difference between Marshal & Warden, both are frequently used to describe the same role they undertake, it's the same meaning, different word. You should have a fire warden in your workplace for every 50 people. Other spaces may be found to be at a much higher risk of a fire. In such a case, you may require one warden for every 15 to 20 people but review your FRA to help determine the quantity required.

Fire Alarm Systems & Monitoring Within Care Homes

Fire alarm monitoring for care homes must be compliant with EN 54 and BS 5839 standards, requiring the system to be automatically linked to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) to alert the fire brigade immediately upon activation. This provides a faster response than a manual call, which is crucial for residents who may be unable to self-evacuate. Both wired and wireless systems can meet these requirements, but wireless systems offer easier installation in occupied buildings.
