Frequently Asked
Questions
How much does fire alarm installation cost?
The supplied starting estimates are £180 for Residential Grade D and £850 for Wireless Grade A. Commercial systems and extensions need a bespoke quotation after a survey.
Which system is right for my property?
The choice depends on the property’s use, layout and fire safety requirements. The survey establishes the appropriate specification before installation.
Can you extend an existing alarm system?
An extension depends on the condition, capacity and compatibility of the existing equipment. These are checked before the proposed work is agreed.
Will installation disrupt the property?
The level of disruption depends on cable routes, access and the chosen system. Agree the work sequence and access arrangements before installation.
What happens at handover?
The agreed commissioning checks are completed and the system’s operation, documentation and ongoing care are explained.
