Apartments fire safety equipment maintenance

Fire Extinguisher Services Trusted by Apartment Building Managing Agents and Freeholders

In apartment buildings, fire safety depends on equipment that remains reliable within shared areas accessed daily by residents, visitors and contractors.

From entrance lobbies and stair cores to lift lobbies, bin stores, plant rooms and underground parking areas, fire extinguishers must be properly maintained, clearly identifiable and readily accessible to support safe evacuation and early fire intervention. Safe I.S. provides structured fire extinguisher servicing tailored to apartment buildings, where communal layouts, multiple storeys and shared escape routes place clear responsibilities on the responsible person.

Our BAFE SP101 accredited engineers carry out detailed, multi-point servicing inspections, checking pressure levels, safety devices, internal and external condition, mounting position, signage, accessibility and overall suitability for the risks present within the building. Every visit is completed with updated service labels and clear written records, supporting managing agent compliance, audit trails, insurer requirements and ongoing fire safety management across the development.
