Fire and Security System Solutions During Construction by A Plus Security


In our most recent blog, we delved into the critical importance of strengthening safety and security measures on construction sites.

Now, we’re going to explore how installing permanent systems during the construction phase can significantly elevate site safety, streamline operations, and provide long-term value to both the project and its stakeholders.

Meeting Employer Requirements and Design Specifications

At A-Plus Security, we specialise in providing fully turnkey fire and security solutions that align precisely with employer requirements, design specifications and intent drawings provided during the tender stage. By integrating these systems seamlessly into the construction process, we ensure that every component is strategically placed and configured to maximise effectiveness, while adhering to architectural and regulatory guidelines.

Delivering Robust and Reliable Systems

Our main goal is to equip our end-clients with a robust, reliable system they can count on, long after construction is completed. From disabled refuge and fire alarm systems to CCTV, access control, intruder alarms, WC alarm systems and IT networks, we offer a comprehensive suite of solutions tailored to the specific needs of each project. By installing permanent systems during construction, we also minimise the need for post-construction modifications or retrofits, saving time, reducing disruptions and allowing a neater finish for the occupier.

Collaboration with MEP and Construction Teams

We understand the importance of seamless collaboration with electrical teams from MEP and construction companies. Our experience working closely with these teams enables us to seamlessly integrate fire and security systems into the overall project plan, ensuring alignment with construction milestones and program schedules. Our strict adherence to health and safety protocols also maintain a safe working environment for all personnel on-site.

Adherence to Client Program of Works

Whether it's a large-scale commercial development or a bespoke residential project, we prioritise working in line with our client's supplied program of works. Our goal is to deliver on-time installation of bespoke fire and security systems without compromising quality or safety. By synchronising our efforts with the overall project timeline, we contribute to the efficient execution of construction activities and mitigate potential delays.

Expert Supervision and Support

To further enhance our service offerings, we provide experienced SSSTS working supervisors when necessary. These supervisors oversee the installation process to make sure that all work is conducted in accordance with industry best practices, regulatory requirements, and client specifications. Their presence on-site reinforces our commitment to delivering excellence in every aspect of our work.

Protecting buildings is paramount for post-project success and at A-Plus Security, we have extensive experience specialising in permanent fire and security solutions that lay the foundation for just this.

What our
clients have to
say about us

A Plus provides an excellent return on investment, not just through the solution installed, but the general experience they offer from pre-install to post-install and right through to the maintenance of the system. We knew we had made the right decision with A Plus as they offered a comprehensive and detailed proposal and project plan. The skill level of their engineers was a pleasant surprise with their knowledge of IT and networks, as well as electronic security, which made dealing with our internal IT team very smooth. Apart from that, the fact we never had to chase them for anything was a very nice surprise!

International Group of Schools

We chose A-Plus Security to carry out the upgrade of our electronic security systems for our 9 colleges and they have far exceeded our expectations in their approach to the projects. We are a UK wide organisation where the planning and mobilising of these major project around term times is time critical and A Plus Security have been nothing short of fantastic in the communication, there design proposals, openness to last minute changes, pre and post-sales support and their management of 3rd party companies and IT services. We would highly recommend A Plus Security to any organisation who are looking to install or upgrade their systems.

Nationwide Groups of Colleges

A Plus Security exceeded all expectations, following a late award of the contract due to a different contractor pulling out. All fire and security works were completed when requested and signed off on finish, with no issues noted. We have continued working with A Plus on following projects and would fully recommend them.
