In a museum, water is often a greater threat than the fire itself. Sprinkler discharge destroys what it saves, so the approach is non-destructive: aspirating detection sensitive enough for the earliest smoulder, inert gas suppression that leaves no residue, and passive protection worked sympathetically into listed fabric under Historic England constraints. Environmental control matters as much — stable ventilation protects archives to BS EN 16893 expectations. Discreet access control and monitored CCTV guard collections without intruding on the visitor experience.
Fire alarms and evacuation, AOV smoke extract, disabled refuge and PAVA — designed, installed and maintained to current British standards, with monitored response when the alarm actually sounds.
Inert and chemical gas suppression — design, install, repair and maintenance for data centres, comms rooms and irreplaceable assets.
Fire doors, fire stopping, compartmentation, barriers and risk assessments — the protection that works without anyone pressing a button.
Intruder alarms, CCTV, access control, door entry and 24/7 monitoring — the systems that stay awake after the last person leaves.
AHU and ductwork install, service and repair, fire-damper testing, ventilation hygiene, AOV smoke extract, air conditioning and commissioning.
Historic England listed building constraints · Non-destructive suppression for irreplaceable collections · BS EN 16893 environmental storage conditions · Multi-site estate monitoring · Public access alongside high-value asset security.
Every install is delivered to the relevant British / European standard with an audit-ready evidence pack at handover.
