Planned maintenance

Fire alarm and security maintenance contracts

Fire alarm servicing, emergency lighting tests, intruder alarm, CCTV and access control maintenance on one planned contract, across Bradford, Leeds, Yorkshire and the North.

Planned maintenance you do not have to chase

Fire alarms, intruder alarms, CCTV, access control, emergency lighting and extinguishers all need regular servicing. We put them on one planned maintenance contract, book the visits for you and send the certificates afterwards.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must keep fire safety equipment maintained. Insurers usually require security systems to be maintained too. A maintenance contract means it is done on time, by certificated engineers, with records you can show an inspector, insurer or fire risk assessor.

What we maintain and how often

Fire alarms: at least every six months to BS 5839-1:2025, with every device tested over the year
Emergency lighting: annual full-duration test to BS 5266-1, plus monthly checks if you want us to do them
Intruder alarms: two visits a year for monitored systems, one for audible-only
CCTV: camera cleaning, focus and recording checks, and storage health
Access control: door hardware, readers, releases and fire alarm interfaces
Fire extinguishers: annual service to BS 5306-3, with extended services and refills when due

Taking over an existing system

Most of our maintenance customers came to us with a system somebody else installed. We look after most makes of fire alarm panel, intruder alarm, CCTV and access control. The first visit is a full inspection, so you know exactly where you stand, and we tell you about anything that does not meet current standards, including BS 5839-1:2025.

Single sites and multi-site estates

Whether you have one shop or fifty branches, you get one point of contact and one schedule. For larger estates we group visits by area to keep costs down and provide a summary across every site. See multi-site contracts.

Who we work with

Offices, schools, care homes, landlords and HMOs, warehouses and factories, hotels and hospitality, shops and facilities managers.

Common questions

What is included in a fire alarm maintenance contract?

Six-monthly servicing to BS 5839-1, a check of the logbook and false alarms, battery and panel tests, device testing across the year, certificates after every visit, and a written list of any recommended work.

Can you take over from our current provider?

Yes. We service most makes of fire alarm, intruder alarm, CCTV, access control and emergency lighting. We start with a full inspection and report, then align service dates with your existing schedule.

Can we combine fire, security and emergency lighting on one contract?

Yes. Combining systems means fewer visits, one point of contact and one set of paperwork.

Are you tied in for a long period?

We agree the terms and pricing with you in writing before the contract starts.

Do you cover sites outside Yorkshire?

Yes. We maintain systems across Yorkshire, Lancashire, Greater Manchester, the North East and the East Midlands, and can discuss sites further afield.
