Fire alarms in Islington
Islington is dense and mixed. Upper Street and Essex Road have restaurants, bars and shops with flats above, which need the commercial alarm and the flats to work together as the fire risk assessment says. Clerkenwell and the edge of the City have offices and studios in converted warehouses, often altered several times. Highbury, Holloway, Archway and Finsbury Park have streets of Victorian houses split into flats and HMOs, licensed by the council and needing a BS 5839-6 certificate, and the borough has many purpose-built blocks with communal systems. We install, extend and service all of these, conventional, addressable and wireless.
