Many businesses may face the challenge of finding a suitable and affordable leasing option for a fire alarm installation. Fixfire® is now able to offer leasing options (subject to status) which give you the opportunity to spread the cost of your fire alarm installation.
Leasing is a form of finance used by businesses to obtain a wide range of equipment necessary to operate efficiently and effectively. It is a solution where much-needed equipment may otherwise be out of reach, due to limited cash flow or a requirement to eliminate the burden of upfront costs.
What are the key benefits of leasing?
- Often works are needed for legal or statutory compliance but there is insufficient available budget. Now you can proceed with installations and enjoy the benefit of immediate protection and compliance with budgeted repayments.
- Fixed payments across the term of the lease.
- Tailored to your individual requirements.
What can leasing be used for?
Suitable for a large selection of asset types, leasing is available on purchases from £1,000 to several million pounds in value.
Does business trading performance limit options to leasing?
Whether a new start, well established, small or large company, the credit history of your business will be reviewed and its financial performance.
How long does it take to arrange the leasing?
The main driving factor behind this is the amount you wish to apply for. Typically the leasing below £50,000.00 will take less than 24 working hours for a credit decision. If all parties are fully aligned, it is possible to complete a full transaction from proposal to signed documentsand pay-out within one working day.
If I use leasing, do I need to insure the assets?
Yes; as soon as you take delivery of the assets you are obliged under the terms of the agreement to insure it against loss or damage. With all our agreements you will be asked to provide details of your insurance policy and should you not have insurance, this will be set up for you by our nominated third party insurance provider who will contact you by post.
Can I make changes to my agreement during the term?
Yes; being flexible is one of the key benefits of leasing as we understand that you may wish to upgrade your assets or add additional assets to your business. Typically, we allow for upgrades or additional assets to be added to a new agreement when 50% of the original agreement term has passed or where system mandatory upgrades are needed.

False Fire Alarms remain a huge concern within the education sector- interrupting already carefully scheduled, planned and well-prepared lessons or even causing major disruption and distress to exams.
Clearly, these false alarms cause significant inconvenience and disruption to students, staff, and visitors. They compromise everyone’s safety in the school and present a significant risk to the local community since the Fire Brigade will prioritise the school over other emergency callouts.
Solutions you should consider:
The first and most straightforward way is to use anti-tamper products.
Fixfire® supplies a wide range of solutions designed to protect Fire Alarm Devices from inadvertent damage or deliberate misuse/vandalism.
Products include:
- Local plastic cover flaps which attach directly to manual call points.
- The stopper consists of a clear, tamperproof, tough polycarbonate cover, frame and spacer that retrofits over a break glass call point. When lifted to operate the break glass unit, its optional battery powered integral sounder emits a piercing 96dB (at 1m). Immediate attention is drawn to the area and a prankster will either run or be caught!
- A range of steel web stoppers designed to protect fire detectors and warning devices. They are constructed from heavy-duty galvanised steel rod which is plastic-coated for durability and external use.
- A range of polycarbonate enclosures are available for the protection of devices such as fire alarm control panels and associated control equipment. The enclosures combine tough rugged construction with stylish design and offer excellent protection with a key lock for authorised access.
We also provide anti-tamper devices for fire extinguishers and associated products.
KeyCall® is a patented anti-ligature Fire Alarm and Access Control call point. It is designed to use the same key as the doors, providing simple operation for staff whilst eliminating nuisance activations by service-users.
KeyCall® has been developed by Fixfire® specifically for approved applications where standard versions would be vulnerable to abuse.
It is one of the best solutions for SEN schools and it is also compatible with a wide range of Conventional and Addressable Fire Alarm Systems.
Most fire safety courses offer a mix of classroom-based learning and practical training experience, educating attendees on how to respond in the event of an emergency.
In order to fulfil your obligations under current Fire Safety Law, it is essential that you have a documented regime of Fire Safety tests and checks and personnel who are suitably trained to respond correctly in the event of an emergency.
All Fire Safety Training is provided by experienced, time-served and qualified persons from a Fire Safety background.
Even if the cameras don't identify the culprit, they can identify who was in the area at the time of the false alarm activation. Fixfire® specialises in integration and will bring together your Fire, Access and Security systems providing enhanced functionality.
Fixfire® provides leading-edge integration with ancillary systems and equipment. Our mission is to deliver reliable, well-engineered installations that provide you with peace of mind 24/7.
Smoke detectors that are placed too close to kitchens, cooking appliances, locker rooms or bathrooms will most likely be accidentally activated by the smoke or steam emitted by these sources. Detectors might need to be relocated.
Smoke detectors are more sensitive and are installed in any environment where smoke or steam would not normally be present. Heat detectors are installed in areas such as kitchens where smoke detectors would constantly false alarm during routine cooking. Multi-sensors combine smoke and heat in one detector and offer immunity to false alarms in certain applications.
New detectors have improved technology and can measure a range of conditions to potentially be more effective at detecting a fire condition.
Flush Fire Detectors ensure protection is not compromised in any areas where conventional ‘un-pluggable’ detection could be subject to abuse. It is widely used in SEN Schools.
Make sure the alarm system is properly and regularly maintained.
Fixfire® is BAFE accredited for the Design, Installation, Maintenance and Servicing of Fire Alarm Systems.
All works are carried out by our employed, uniformed and trained Fire Alarm engineers.
Following each visit, a Certificate of Inspection is issued.
