Planned Fire Alarm Maintenance & Testing for Local Councils

Keeping your fire alarm systems in top condition isn’t just good practice, it’s a legal requirement. Fire alarms and detection systems need to be serviced every six months by a qualified professional to stay compliant. That’s where we come in.

As a BAFE-accredited contractor, we offer maintenance packages to suit the size of your buildings and the systems you have in place. Our experienced engineers will handle full servicing, provide emergency callouts and issue certificates of compliance, so you can be sure your council’s properties are meeting legal standards and that the fire equipment is always in good working order.

Emergency Lighting for Local Council Properties

In an emergency, it’s vital for everyone to quickly find the nearest exit. If any of your council buildings, such as schools or community centres, have areas without natural light, a power outage can create serious risks without the proper emergency lighting. By law, emergency routes must remain illuminated for at least three hours after a power failure.

We can design and install reliable emergency lighting for your council properties, ensuring safety and compliance. Our team will assess key escape routes and low-light areas to make sure your staff, students and visitors can safely exit at any time of the day or night.

Disabled Refuge & Call Points for Local Council Buildings

Installing a disabled refuge unit in your council buildings ensures that everyone, including those who need assistance, can safely evacuate. By law, multi-story buildings such as libraries and town halls need to have refuge areas for people who may need extra help, like wheelchair users or those with mobility impairments. These areas allow them to communicate directly with evacuation personnel for reassurance and updates.

Midland Fire has been helping local councils provide safer evacuations for over 25 years. We can provide the same solution for your buildings, ensuring the safety of everyone present as well as compliance with the current regulations.

Fire Extinguishers for Local Council Properties

With years of experience installing fire extinguishers in council-owned buildings like schools and libraries, we’ll ensure that the right extinguishers are placed in the right spots, making them easy to find and use in case of a fire.

Regular checks are crucial for keeping extinguishers in working order, which is why we offer full maintenance and service plans for ongoing protection too. We also provide fire blankets, accessories and signage so that your staff and visitors know exactly where to find life-saving equipment when they need it most.

Access Control Systems for Local Council Buildings

Looking to improve security and control access to your council buildings? Keyless entry systems using fobs, cards or intercoms offer the ideal solution. Our experienced security engineers will design and install a system that fits your needs, ensuring your council’s properties, staff and data are fully protected.

With a custom access control system, you can prevent unauthorised entry, monitor staff movement and protect sensitive areas in a variety of building types. They can also help track attendance, manage visitors and streamline deliveries.

CCTV & Intruder Alarm Installation for Local Council Properties

CCTV and alarms are excellent security measures for keeping your council buildings safe, offering a visible deterrent to criminals and helping you stay informed of what’s happening around your properties. Whether you need basic coverage or full surveillance, our team will create a system tailored to your buildings, from office blocks to residential properties.

We can install high-definition cameras to monitor key areas both inside and outside, and for added protection, our intruder alarms will alert you to break-ins with motion sensors, door contacts and panic buttons. Our systems can even be linked to 24-hour control centres, with security professionals ready to respond if your alarms are triggered.
