Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, businesses are required to provide general fire safety training for all staff, as well as specialised fire warden or marshal training for designated personnel, with refresher sessions conducted periodically.

Vanquish Fire offers tailored fire training courses to ensure your team has the knowledge to protect people, property, and equipment. Training for appointed fire wardens covers all key aspects of fire safety, from general awareness to the use of different types of extinguishers.

Courses include presentations, theory sessions, Q&A, and practical fire extinguisher exercises on live fires, with all participants receiving a certificate of attendance.

Our trainers deliver sessions across Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire, and surrounding areas, providing staff with a clear understanding of fire prevention and the correct actions during a fire emergency.

Vanquish Fire can design, install, commission, and maintain all types of fire alarm systems to comply with BS5839.1, including air sampling, beam detection, gas suppression, as well as conventional heat, smoke, and CO₂ point detection on both conventional and addressable panels.

A Fire Risk Assessment identifies the appropriate fire alarm system for your premises and can recommend automatic shutdowns such as gas valves, lift grounding, door control, or automatic alerts to a Central Station notifying keyholders and the Fire Authority. Using this assessment, Vanquish Fire can survey your site, advise on upgrades, install new systems, or guide you on mandatory testing procedures, supporting you at every stage to ensure complete satisfaction.

Fire Alarm Monitoring significantly enhances protection. An unmonitored system can only alert those on-site, whereas a monitored alarm automatically signals the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), which notifies the local fire service and nominated keyholders immediately. This 24/7 monitoring can be critical in preventing serious damage, ensuring quick response even when the building is unoccupied.

Most workplaces are legally required to have fire alarms under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, providing early warning to staff before fire spreads. All fire alarm and detection systems must be serviced and maintained according to BS5839 at least every six months to remain compliant and fully operational.

All businesses in the UK must comply with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRO), which requires a designated Responsible Person to oversee fire safety within the premises. Their role is to identify potential fire hazards and manage risks to employees, visitors, and customers.

Legally, you are responsible for ensuring your business and staff are protected from fire risks. This responsibility applies if you are an employer, owner, landlord, occupier, facilities manager, building manager, or managing agent.

A Fire Risk Assessment reviews hazards and risks, identifies escape routes and exits, checks firefighting equipment, fire alarms, safe storage of hazardous materials, and considers the needs of occupants. All findings must be documented along with an emergency evacuation plan for staff and visitors. These documents should be regularly updated to reflect changes in building layout, use, or personnel.

Vanquish Fire provides Fire Risk Assessors in Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire, and surrounding areas to help businesses stay compliant and safe.
