Frequently asked questions about fire and security systems in Hull
It depends on the size and use of your premises. Most commercial properties in Hull and East Yorkshire require a BS 5839 compliant addressable or conventional fire alarm system. Addressable systems are generally recommended for larger or more complex buildings as they pinpoint exactly where a detector has activated. We carry out a site assessment before recommending anything, so you only pay for what your building actually needs.
Yes — this is something we do regularly. We can take over fire alarm maintenance, intruder alarm maintenance and CCTV maintenance from another provider, carry out an initial inspection to bring everything up to standard, and then manage your ongoing servicing from there. We’ll also get your documentation and service records organised properly if the previous company left things in a mess.
Under BS 5839, commercial fire alarm systems should be serviced at least twice a year by a competent engineer. Some higher-risk premises require quarterly visits. We’ll advise on the right schedule for your building and send reminders when your next service is due so nothing gets missed.
Yes. We offer 24/7 alarm monitoring for both fire alarm systems and intruder alarms across Hull and East Yorkshire. If your system activates out of hours, our monitoring centre contacts the relevant keyholders or emergency services immediately. Monitored systems also tend to attract lower insurance premiums, so there’s often a cost benefit beyond the added peace of mind.
You’re not legally required to use one, but your insurer may insist on it — particularly for intruder alarms. Many business insurance policies will only pay out on a break-in claim if the alarm was installed and maintained by an SSAIB or NSI certificated company.
Cobra Fire and Security is SSAIB certificated under the Electronic Security Systems scheme, covering intruder alarms, CCTV and access control, so your security system will meet insurer requirements from day one. Our fire alarm work is carried out by competent engineers to BS 5839, with full design, installation and commissioning documentation provided at handover.
