Fire Safety in High-rise buildings.
If you are responsible for Fire safety or are a resident of a high-rise, multi-occupancy property you will be only too aware of the increased awareness of the need for enhanced fire detection and evacuation processes.
The former ‘stay put’ guidance is now regarded as unsafe and has been replaced by a ‘simultaneous evacuation’ strategy.
Many properties have deployed a waking watch service; this is a fire protection service and involves marshals patrolling to lookout for potential signs of a fire. They are also responsible for raising the alarm.
These services are costing property owners and residents thousands of pounds. A Waking Watch service can be replaced by a wireless Fire Detection System. This meets all the required standards and is quickly and easily installed. The total one-off cost of a Fire Detection System can be less than 10 weeks of a Waking Watch service.
The LCD Reader is unique and can be configured to display images of the customers choice such as a company’s logo/name. The main visible face of the reader is a full-colour backlit LCD screen. Proximity Readers read a token when the token is held within close proximity. When the token has been read the controller looks up all the access permissions of that user and either grant or denies access. If access is granted or denied then the designated image is displayed.
