Fire alarms, CCTV and security in Manchester
Installation, servicing and maintenance contracts across Manchester and Salford, from a BAFE and SSAIB certificated Yorkshire company.
Fire and security for Manchester businesses
Manchester has city-centre offices, converted warehouses, apartment blocks, student accommodation, hotels and busy retail, all with different fire and security needs.
Many Manchester buildings are converted cotton warehouses and mills now used as offices and apartments. Changes of use like these often leave fire alarm systems that no longer match the building, so we start with a survey against the current fire risk assessment and BS 5839-1:2025.
We cover Manchester and nearby areas including Salford, Trafford, Stockport, Ancoats and Didsbury, across the M postcode area. Typical customers here include commercial, residential blocks, student accommodation and hospitality.

How we work outside Yorkshire
The M62 and the A65/A59 put east Lancashire and Greater Manchester within easy reach of our engineers. Much of our work here is for organisations with sites on both sides of the Pennines who want one contractor, one standard and one set of paperwork. We also work for local businesses who want a BAFE and SSAIB certificated installer with a fixed price and a named engineer.
How a Manchester project works
- Free survey. We visit your Manchester site, look at the building, your fire risk assessment and your insurer’s requirements.
- Written design and fixed quote. What we will install, where, and the price, before any work starts.
- Installation. Our own engineers fit the system, planned around your opening hours.
- Commissioning and handover. Everything is tested, your staff are shown how it works and you get the certificates.
- Planned maintenance. Service visits booked in advance, with a certificate after every visit.
