Choosing Fire Alarm Products For Your Business
Before buying fire alarm equipment, check whether you need alarms, detectors, call points, warning devices, a wireless fire alarm system or replacement parts for an existing setup. A warehouse fire alarm system, construction site alarm, office detector or facilities alarm product may have different requirements.
For commercial buildings, fire detection and alarm systems should be selected around the fire risk assessment, building layout, occupancy and product specification. If the system needs design, installation, commissioning or integration with existing equipment, seek competent advice before ordering individual fire alarm products.

FAQs For Fire Alarms & Fire Detection Systems
What are the different types of fire alarm systems in the UK?
Common options include standalone alarms, linked alarm systems, manual call points, smoke detectors, heat detectors, wireless fire alarm systems, base stations and warning devices. The right type depends on the site and risk assessment.
What are L1, L2 and L3 fire alarm systems?
L1, L2 and L3 are fire detection coverage categories used in system design. They should not be chosen casually from a product page. Use a fire risk assessment and competent advice.
Which fire alarm system is best for a UK workplace?
The best fire alarm system depends on the building layout, occupancy, fire risks, required coverage and whether equipment must connect with an existing system. Do not choose on price alone.
What is the British standard for fire alarm systems?
BS 5839 is the main British Standard series for fire detection and fire alarm systems, with BS 5839 Part 1 covering commercial and non-domestic premises. Read our guide to BS 5839 categories, types and testing requirements for a full breakdown before you specify a system. For commercial premises, check the latest guidance and use competent advice where required.
How often should a fire alarm system be tested?
Call points and manual alarms are typically checked weekly as part of routine testing, with a full system test and service carried out periodically by a competent person – see our BS 5839 guide for testing frequency by system category. Always confirm the exact schedule for your building with a competent fire alarm engineer.
Can I buy a wireless fire alarm system for a warehouse or site?
Yes, Tiger Supplies lists wireless fire alarm products including call points, smoke detectors, heat detectors and base stations. Always check product compatibility, range, power source and site suitability before ordering.
Are smoke detectors and heat detectors the same?
No. Smoke detectors respond to smoke, while heat detectors respond to heat. The right option depends on the location, environment and risk type, so check the product specification carefully.
Do commercial fire alarm products need professional installation?
Some commercial fire alarm systems need competent design, installation, commissioning and maintenance, especially where products form part of a wider system. Check the product details and site requirements before buying.
