Fire Safety Audits
Fires can have a devastating financial impact upon businesses of all sizes, destroying the livelihood of business owners, operators, and employees, and in many cases leading to bankruptcy. Whether large or small, a fire can cause irreparable damage to a business' infrastructure and stock, resulting in significant losses to productivity and profit. Statistics show that a large portion of businesses that suffer a fire do not continue operating after the incident.
Therefore it is critical for business owners and their insurers to implement all fire prevention methods available and to ensure that properties and people are protected against a fire loss. This can be achieved by installing suitable fire alarm systems and extinguishers, and by establishing and maintaining a fire safety policy.
We conduct fire safety audits that involve an examination of the premises, fire alarm systems, and firefighting equipment, as well as examination of the relevant documents regarding the management of fire safety on the premises. Our engineers conduct walk-through inspections and talk to members of staff to confirm their level of fire safety awareness.
We employ our thorough understanding of fires and their root causes to provide a valuable assessment of occupants ability to prevent a fire ignition, and utilise our many years of experience investigating fires across different types of properties to assess the occupants ability to mitigate and control the spread of fire.
During our audits, we request for the occupants to demonstrate that they have met the fire protection requirements mandated by local codes and agencies. We also verify the adequacy and effectiveness of the following fire protection systems:
Our fire safety audits will typically conclude with a walk around the premises to highlight findings and confirm the validity of everything discussed.
These audits have been utilised by business owners wishing to ensure their compliance with applicable local codes and regulations, as well as by insurers seeking validation of policy warranties.
Our priority is not to catch violations or documentdeficiencies, but instead to inform and educate the responsible person on the premises about how to meet their required local codes and standards, and the insurance policy terms and conditions. The audit will help you to check the existing equipment, service the equipment, its components, and also the expected recommendations will be told to you. These were just some of the benefits that you will be able to enjoy when you have the fire and safety audit done for your company. There are many more such benefits, and above all, you will be able to keep yourself in compliance with the law and provide a safe working environment for your employees.

What We Do
Inspections include visual inspection of all structural elements; building frame, structural floor slabs, doors, roof scuttles, shutters, stairs, platforms, railings, handrails, and specialty anchors such asrappelling rings, railings, ladder frames. Coating thickness may be checked and attention to corrosionand rusting will be reviewed.
The inspection includes visual inspection of the burn room linings, the lining anchors and the overall integrity of the structure. When damage to the linings indicates that invasive inspection is warranted, we will remove sufficient portions of the lining, where possible, to allow access behind.
A fire inspection might be something that you have put off without a second thought. The truth is a simple check-up can help to prevent a costly catastrophe, saving you hundreds of thousands of dollars and protecting what you value most.
A fire inspection works to keep people and property safe by education and examination. Educating employees on fire safety is a must! Workers should know not to store items in front of escapes and how to store flammable materials. Often these items can lay dormant for so long that without a trained inspector, workers can forget those hazards are even there.
Inspections help ensure compliance with local laws regarding fire protection systems. There is usually a minimum amount of smoke detectors per floor area, including hallways, stairwells, and other common areas where people congregate. In addition, some states require sprinkler systems on certain types of buildings or have specific requirements for alarm system installation as well as fire extinguishers in proper locations.
A fire inspection also helps to ensure that safety systems are working correctly. Sprinklers need regular check-ups to make sure they are operating at full power. Alarms and smoke detectors need to be tested appropriately and done when they will not interfere with business or employees.
Fire extinguishers are pressurized and have an expiration date. A fire inspection can also help make sure the proper kind of extinguisher is in the right areas. There are extinguishers for regular flammable materials, flammable liquids like gas or oil, electrical equipment, and even ones specifically for commercial kitchens. A proper inspection can make sure your extinguisher dosnt make matters worse in an emergency.

It is presumed that a comprehensive fire safety audit can cover various aspects which are related to design, operation and maintenance of the facilities, and even the review of inherent fire hazards associated with the day-to-day activities in a building. It assesses the building for compliance with the existing building codes, national standards and the building fire safety regulations. In addition to complete building auditing, they can even be tailored to suit a specific fire protection system. The audit findings are generally published in a report which also provides recommendations on how to remedy any non-compliance that were identified. Thus the fire safety audits will allow us to identify any non-conformances and / or provide recommendations to the client allowing them to attend to these matters and therefore seek to achieve compliance with relevant legislation. It may be remembered here that the fire safety audits are not limited to a desk top review of available documentations or a visual inspection. On the contrary an active system test can also be carried out to ensure all systems operate and interface as designed and included in a fire safety audit report. Contact us for fire safety audit.

We are often asked what a fire safety audit is and this can be quite concerning. To put it simply, they are a physical inspection of a property to establish how the property, usually they are non-residential, is managed with regards to fire safety. More often than not, they are pre-arranged by a company that is looking to be proactive about the care of their employees. The audit will involve checking documentation, speaking to various members of staff to establish what they do and don't know and checking what procedures are in place.
Legally, "responsible persons" for a building such as business owners and managers have a responsibility for ensuring that fire regulations are complied with. Failure to do so is a serious crime that can lead to large fines, imprisonment or both.
Prevention is always better than cure and that is certainly the case with fire safety. It is understandable if you are unsure how safe your premises are but it is not something that can be ignored. You need to arrange a risk assessment that can be conducted by a trained professional. They will immediately be able to spot any potential problems and offer sensible, practical solutions. They will also be able to advise you on fire extinguisher placement, sprinkler systems and the installation of fire doors.
What should you expect?
A fire safety audit is a thorough inspection of your premises along with all the latest documentation. It may depend on who is carrying out the inspection and who has arranged it for what exactly takes place. If you have requested the audit, you will be given helpful advice but if it is an official fire safety inspector carrying out an official inspection, it may well involve interviews and demands for immediate action.
What happens next?
The aim of the fire inspection, if carried out by an inspector is to establish how well you have scored. If your premises or the documentation are in breach of any laws, the officer will decide what response is required. This will depend on the severity of the breach and what steps are already in place to comply with the regulations.
Minor breaches usually get a more informal response and often include suggestions and instructions of what needs to done to remedy the problem. This will involve talking to the 'responsible person' and requesting that they take immediate action. More often than not, the inspector will return to check that the requests have been complied with.
Where serious breaches have taken place, an enforcement notice may be issued. A deadline will be set for the work to be completed. The deadline will be ample time to carry out the changes but will also be enough time to carry out an appeal if the business owner feels that this is necessary. In the worst case scenario and the inspector feels that the premises are an immediate danger they can impose emergency powers to restrict operations. If the responsible person has failed to adequately comply with fire safety law, the inspector can also initiate a prosecution.
