Leeds fire alarm emergency: on site in 24 hours, residents back in 36

A residential building in Leeds was served a prohibition notice over its fire alarm. We were on site within 24 hours — new panel, 40 new devices and cabling, completed in 36 hours so residents could move back in.

When a residential building in Leeds was served a prohibition notice over its fire alarm system, the residents were out until it was put right. Capital M&E was on site within 24 hours — and within 36 hours of starting, the building had a new Advanced control panel, 40 new detection and alarm devices and the cabling to serve them, installed, tested and certificated.

The prohibition was lifted and residents moved back in. It's the job our reactive setup exists for: a Leeds office able to mobilise same-day, engineers who design and certificate fire alarm systems to BS 5839 in-house, and no waiting on a third party for panels, devices or paperwork.
