Fire Alarm Design

[Guest James]

Afternoon

I understand that it depends on the job time taken to plane etc but what price range should you be getting quoted for the design of a new fire alarm system etc

Lets just say in my case a medium 2 floor office.

If anyone does designs who can advise what I roughly should be getting quoted it would be appreciated (design only not inc equipment).

You need to get together with the fire risk assessor and a fire alarm designer to design the system you require for example what categories do you require. Do you require only a manual system (M) or combined with life system (L) or including a property protection system (P) to costs will vary considerably.

For example Offices: 3 Floored Victorian Building

12 x Optical Smoke Detectors
2 x Heat Detectors
7 x Manual Call Points
5 x Sounders

Alarm System Used: Apollo non addressable

Supplied, fitted, commissioned and certificated £4644 plus Vat

Once you you know what is required then you can get some estimates.
