Professional Fire Alarm Installation, Testing & Maintenance

Fire alarm systems are essential for protecting lives, property, and business continuity. At MAGG Fire Services, we provide expert fire alarm design, installation, servicing, and emergency support to ensure your system remains fully compliant and operational.

A properly maintained fire alarm system detects smoke, heat, or fire early and alerts occupants, allowing safe evacuation and reducing risk.

WHY FIRE ALARMS ARE IMPORTANT

Why Fire

Alarms

Are Important

A compliant fire alarm system:

01

Protects staff, visitors, and contractors.

02

Reduces the risk of injury and property damage.

03

Supports legal compliance with UK fire safety regulations.

04

Provides documentation for audits, inspections, and insurance purposes.

Regular maintenance ensures your system works when it matters most.

TESTING FREQUENCY

How Often Fire Alarms

Must Be Tested

Fire alarm systems require routine checks to remain compliant and reliable.

01

Weekly in-house tests must be carried out by a responsible person within the organisation. Each week, a different call point should be tested to ensure full system coverage.

02

Annual servicing must be completed by a competent and qualified engineer.

03

In some cases, bi-annual servicing may be required depending on system type and risk level.

Regular professional maintenance ensures continued compliance and system reliability.

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

Legal

Requirements

Fire alarm systems must comply with BS 5839 standards, which set the requirements for design, installation, testing, and maintenance.

Failure to maintain a compliant system can result in:

01

Legal penalties.

02

Insurance complications or invalidated claims.

03

Increased risk to life and property.

Keeping accurate records of all testing and servicing is essential for compliance.
