JLA fire safety cover contracts

With two levels of service & maintenance you can choose a plan for any or all of the fire safety equipment you need us to cover, and create a bespoke contract for your business.

Cover all your fire safety equipment & devices with a single contract

A commercial service & maintenance contract is a must if you need the constant certainty of having fully compliant fire equipment – and the reassurance of knowing your extinguishers, alarms, sensors and sounders will all work as they should in case of emergency. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 also states that it is a legal requirement for all commercial premises to have a ‘suitable system of maintenance in place.

Without the right contract you could be breaking fire safety regulations

“…the responsible person must ensure that the premises and any facilities, equipment and devices provided in respect of the premises… are subject to a suitable system of maintenance and are maintained in an efficient state, in efficient working order and in good repair.”

Article 17 of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005

Important information: Your key commercial responsibilities

Fire extinguisher maintenance

Fire extinguisher testing and servicing is a particularly important part of our Fire safety cover. Checks should be completed annually in line with BS 5306-3:2017, to check your fire extinguishers for corrosion or discharge.

We can then remove fire extinguishers that aren’t safe or compliant, and help you replace them with recommendations from the JLA range (all manufactured to BS EN3 with the BS Kitemark).

Fire extinguisher maintenance

The ‘Responsible Person’ in your business has to ensure your fire system is regularly serviced. They also have a legal duty to ensure it is serviced by a competent person. Many companies assign a Responsible Person (RP), but overlook the training that’s needed to allow them to properly carry out their duties and keep your premises compliant. At JLA, we train your RP on the equipment covered by your contract and can assist in completing checks and inspections that they may not be qualified or confident enough to oversee.
