15+ years in fire safety
BS 5839-1 compliant
£10m public liability
Fully trained & insured engineer
New systems, extensions and panel replacements, designed to BS 5839-1 and installed and commissioned by the same engineer from first survey to signed certificate.
A new system designed around the layout and use of your building, sized correctly for its risk category.
More rooms, a new floor or a re-partitioned layout — devices added or re-mapped across loops without a full system replacement.
A failing or unsupported panel replaced, with existing cabling and devices kept where they are in good order and compatible.
An inspection, a risk assessment or a change of use shows the existing system no longer fits the building.
We walk the building, look at any existing system, and note the layout, risk and access.
The system category and device layout are set against your fire risk assessment and BS 5839-1, and you receive a written quote.
Cabling, devices and panel installed, then full loop and zone testing on handover, with a signed certificate issued on completion.
A system logbook set up for your responsible person and, if you want it, planned servicing by the same engineer.
Every building is different, so installations are quoted after a free site survey rather than from a price list. These are the things that move the figure.
More detectors, call points and sounders mean more cable, more labour and a larger panel.
Small, simple buildings often suit a conventional system. Larger or more complex ones usually suit addressable, which shows exactly which device has operated.
Whether you need L1, L2, L3, L4, L5, P1, P2 or M decides how much of the building is covered. Your fire risk assessment normally drives it — see our categories guide.
Building construction, ceiling types, working at height and how easily cable routes can be reached all affect the time on site.
Remote monitoring, aspirating smoke detection, disabled refuge systems or emergency lighting fitted at the same time are priced as part of the same job.
Where existing cabling or devices are in good order and compatible, reusing them can bring the cost down.
We are not VAT registered, so there is no VAT on top of the figure you are quoted. For the ongoing cost of servicing once the system is in, see plans & pricing.
We specialise in Gent by Honeywell and Notifier systems, from conventional panels to multi-loop addressable networks, and we also work across Advanced, Kentec, Morley-IAS, C-TEC and Fike panels. See the full list on our services page.

“Dan was super responsive and helpful, taking the time to understand our requirements and doing a great job with the installation. Follow up maintenance has always been timely and top quality. Highly recommend.”
“Dan was brilliant. Had an alarm going off in our shop intermittently and he came out within a few hours. Seemed very knowledgeable and sorted very quickly for us.”
“Array Fire upgraded our fire alarm system and was very professional, tidy and fairly priced. We will be appointing Array Fire Protection to carry out the routine maintenance moving forward.”
It depends on the size and layout of the building, the type of system and the category it needs, so we quote after a free site survey rather than from a price list. The survey costs nothing and you get a written quote. We are not VAT registered, so there is no VAT on top of the figure you are quoted.
Yes. We extend existing systems, re-map devices across loops when a site is extended or refitted, and replace panels that are failing or can no longer be supported. Tell us what is on your wall and we will say what can be kept and what cannot.
The category and the device layout should follow your fire risk assessment, and if you already have one we will work to it directly. If you do not, we can point you toward a qualified assessor before we design the system.
We agree access and working hours with you at the survey stage, so the work can be planned around how your building operates.
Full loop and zone testing on handover, a signed commissioning certificate, and a system logbook set up for your responsible person.
Yes. Planned servicing to BS 5839-1 is available as an Essential, Standard or Total Care plan — see plans and pricing. Emergency lighting can be fitted alongside the alarm and tested on the same visit.
