Construction
Keep your site insured.Keep your programme moving.
JCoP-compliant wireless fire alarms across the UK, mobilised in days and built to move with every phase of your build.
Get a site quote →More than an installer. A compliance partner.
Most fire safety companies install a system and walk away. The building owner is left to handle the funding application, the certification, the compliance paperwork, and whatever the regulator asks for next.
Block Fire does more. We start with the outcome you actually need — a compliant building, a funded project, a clean audit trail — and handle everything in between. Funded where funding exists. Compliant in every case.
Two lines of work. One standard.
Residential buildings
For residential blocks in England — typically 11 metres or taller — carrying the cost of a waking watch. We secure IMAF funding, design and install a BS 5839-1 Cat L5 common alarm system with full certification on handover — and a clear upgrade path to a BS 8629 evacuation alert system when your building needs it.
Explore residential →Construction sites
For main contractors who need fire detection on a live site without the cost or disruption of a fixed install. Wireless, EN54-25 systems on a monthly subscription that sits in your prelims, mobilised in days and repositioned as your programme moves through each phase.
