Really happy with CCTV cameras A&F Solutions fitted for me. Finley explained everything clearly, the price was very reasonable and the work was neat and tidy. The picture quality is great day and night and he showed me how to use it all on my phone. Would definitely recommend.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How often does a fire alarm need servicing?

BS 5839-1 recommends a fire alarm is serviced by a competent person about every six months. Every detector, call point and sounder must be tested at least once a year, and this can be split across visits. For larger buildings, or where your fire risk assessment calls for it, we can service quarterly instead and test around a quarter of the devices each visit, so the whole system is covered every 12 months.

What testing does emergency lighting need?

BS 5266-1 calls for a short test every month to check each light comes on, and a full-duration test once a year (usually 3 hours). We can do both, or do the annual test and show you how to do the monthly one.

How often should fire extinguishers be serviced?

Every year, under BS 5306-3. If one has been used, is damaged or fails its service, we replace it with a new one.

Can you take over a system someone else installed?

Usually, yes. On the first visit we check the system and let you know about anything that needs attention.

Do you cover areas outside Yorkshire?

Yes. We work across much of England, including the Midlands, Lincolnshire and Derbyshire. If you're further afield, just ask.

What happens after I send a quote request?

You'll get a reference number straight away. We review the details and come back to you with a price, or arrange a visit if we need to see the site first.

How often should door access be serviced?

We recommend every six months to keep locks, readers and releases working reliably.
