Fire Alarm Tests

This service involves a comprehensive survey of the fire alarm panel, and associated
fire alarm call points (see pictures above) throughout a property.
A test is carried out by activating a fire alarm call point, using a fire alarm test key,
then completed by silencing and resetting the fire alarm control panel.
In accordance with the British Standard – BS 5839 Part 1 (2002), Fire alarm tests
should be undertaken on a weekly basis, with at least 1 call point tested per week.
Our service includes full tenant liaison, the completion of documentation on site, and
the maintenance of signed witnessed records off site.
A full, easy to understand, status report relating to all aspects of the tests is created
and forwarded on a monthly basis, or in line with your specific requirements.
We can also provide bi-annual Fire Evacuation Drills based on the same approach.
All on site tenants are made aware of proposed dates for fire evacuation drills at least
one month in advance, with a reminder being sent the week before the scheduled
date.
Full drill reports are compiled and sent, including confirmation of the evacuation time
and the assessor’s comments.
