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The former ‘stay put’ guidance is now regarded as unsafe and has been replaced by a ‘simultaneous evacuation’ strategy.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.
H5A The Avigilon H5A Fisheye Camera is cost-effective and provides 360° panoramic views of large areas from a single vantage point, bringing superior situational awareness without any blind spots. Facilities such as schools, retailers, offices, hospitals and manufacturing plants can leverage the camera’s high-resolution video to monitor processes and optimise operational efficiencies, along with its analytics and AI capabilities to proactively detect critical events and enhance the productivity of security teams.
