What to expect
How the process of designing fire alarm system looks?
01
Site Visit
Anchor Fire engineer will pay a visit to your commercial premisses to identify fire hazards and check possible solution for your space. This involves conducting a fire risk assessment, which is a systematic process of identifying, evaluating, and prioritising fire hazards. The fire risk assessment should consider the building's construction, occupancy, contents, and fire history and it is very important step to your fire safety.

02
Design Development
Once the fire hazards have been identified, the designer can develop a design for the fire alarm system. The design will meet the needs of the building and comply with all applicable regulations. The designer will consider the following factors when developing the design:
- The type of fire alarm system that your building requires
- The location of the fire detectors and alarms
- The wiring for the fire alarm system
- The power supply for the fire alarm system
Fire Alarm System Installation
The fire alarm system will be installed by our team of qualified fire alarm installers. The contractors will follow the approved design and install the system in accordance with all applicable codes and standards. The fire alarm engineer will be on site to make sure no false fire alarm is raised.
04
System Commissioning and Testing
Once the fire alarm system will be installed, it will be tested and commissioned by fire alarm engineer to ensure that it is functioning properly. The testing should include all of the components of the fire alarm system, including the fire detectors, alarms and control panel.
What is fire alarm design?
Fire alarm system design involves creating a comprehensive layout of detectors, alarms, control panels, and wiring to ensure early detection and rapid response during a fire emergency. This includes fire detection system design and fire safety system planning, taking into account building layout, occupancy, and specific risks. Following standards such as BS 5839 fire alarm design ensures your system meets legal and safety requirements.
Proper smoke alarm system design not only safeguards occupants but also reduces false alarms and improves system efficiency. Our engineers provide solutions for fire alarm system design compliant with BS 5839, ensuring every component is positioned and integrated according to best practices.
