Fire Alarms
Expert design, installation, and maintenance of BS 5839 compliant fire detection systems for the public and private sectors.
Advanced Fire Detection & Alarm Solutions
Precision Detection & Reduced False Alarms
Our advanced analogue addressable systems allow for pinpoint accuracy. In the event of a trigger, the system identifies the exact location of the incident. This rapid identification speeds up evacuation and emergency response while significantly reducing the downtime and disruption caused by false alarms.
Scalable & Bespoke Design
From small retail units to sprawling industrial complexes, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. Our ability to design both conventional and analogue addressable systems means your fire solution is perfectly scaled to your building’s layout, ensuring comprehensive coverage without unnecessary complexity.
Full Regulatory Compliance & Peace of Mind
Navigating fire safety legislation can be daunting. We ensure your system meets all current UK building and fire codes, including BS 5839 standards. By partnering with Northern Security, you fulfill your legal obligations, protect your “Responsible Person” status, and ensure your insurance requirements are fully met.
