Strategy from concept to completion
Concept and design-stage strategy
Independent advice focused on defining fire-safety objectives, constraints and design principles early in the project.
Active and passive fire protection
Guidance on coordinating detection, suppression, smoke control, fire-resisting construction and their interfaces.
Regulatory and standards review
Review of proposals against applicable UK guidance, standards and agreed design criteria, highlighting gaps and matters requiring resolution.
Design changes and technical queries
Documented advice on design variations and technical questions, including their effect on the agreed fire strategy.
Means of escape and compartmentation
Advice on escape routes, exit capacity and compartmentation appropriate to the building use and project brief.
Construction-stage assurance
Proportionate review of fire-critical installation evidence and handover information against the intended design.
Independent, evidence-led advice
Recommendations are documented against the project brief, applicable guidance and agreed design criteria, with clear assumptions, actions and interfaces. This structured approach ensures every fire-safety decision is supported by technical logic and established evidence.
Accreditations
The Alarm Hub holds BAFE SP203-1 and SP205 registration and SSAIB certification, is a corporate member of the FIA and FPA, and the team’s verified fire-safety qualifications are listed on the About page.
