At Dragon Security, we design, install, and maintain advanced fire alarm systems using equipment from the world’s leading fire protection manufacturers. Whether for domestic, commercial, or public sector premises, we offer tailored solutions that meet your specific safety requirements.
We adhere strictly to British Standards BS 5839 for fire detection and alarm systems, ensuring full compliance and reliability across all installations.
We offer a wide range of fire alarm systems designed to suit your specific requirements. One of the key decisions when choosing a system is whether to opt for a Conventional or an Addressable fire alarm. While both systems serve the same core purpose — detecting fire and raising the alarm — they function in different ways.
A conventional system divides your premises into zones. When a device (such as a smoke or heat detector) is triggered, the control panel identifies the affected zone, but not the exact device. For example, if Zone 1 represents the ground floor and Zone 2 is the first floor, the panel will indicate which zone is in alarm — but not the specific room or detector.
This system is reliable and cost-effective, making it suitable for smaller or lower-risk properties.
Addressable systems go a step further by identifying the exact device that triggered the alarm. The control panel might display a detailed message such as:
“Bedroom 2, First Floor – FIRE”
This precise information greatly improves response times and emergency coordination. Addressable systems also allow for pre-alarm warnings, giving time to investigate a potential issue before a full evacuation is triggered.
Ideal for larger, complex, or higher-risk environments, addressable systems provide more control, better diagnostics, and faster decision-making in an emergency.
At Dragon Security, we understand that every building is unique — from cutting-edge new developments to heritage and listed properties. In many cases, traditional wired fire alarm systems simply aren't practical due to structural limitations, aesthetic concerns, or installation complexity.
To meet these challenges, we offer fully wireless fire alarm systems that use the latest in advanced radio technology. These systems deliver reliable, high-performance fire detection with minimal disruption to the building or its surroundings.
In certain environments, the earliest possible detection of smoke or fire is critical — even a brief delay can result in devastating consequences for people, property, or operations.
At Dragon Security, we design and install Aspirating Smoke Detection (ASD) systems, including the cutting-edge FAAST™ (Fire Alarm Aspiration Sensing Technology) range from Honeywell. These advanced systems provide highly sensitive, ultra-early smoke detection, even before smoke is visible or traditional detectors would activate.
Ensure Life Safety Compliance and Long-Term Reliability
A fire alarm system is a critical part of your building’s safety infrastructure — but to remain effective, it must be regularly maintained. Ongoing maintenance ensures compliance with British Standard BS 5839, may be required by your insurer, and is essential to uphold the validity of your NSI Gold certification, which is provided upon installation.
At Dragon Security, we offer comprehensive maintenance contracts to keep your fire detection systems functioning correctly and in full compliance with legal and insurance obligations.
24/7 telephone support with access to qualified fire systems engineers
Reduced call-out fees and discounted rates on replacement parts
Priority response appointments for faults and service visits
