Fire risk assessment
specialists for student accommodation
Can you keep your students safe if there is a fire? We can provide specialist guidance and assistance to make sure of compliance and safety, so that if there was a fire systems are in place.
- Fire can spread very quickly if not compartmentalised
- Safeguarding students and keeping staff and students safe is the priority
- Sleeping element can make student accommodation more susceptible to fire hazards, especially at night
- Total evacuation not always appropriate, moving into a protected area can be a safer approach
- If total evacuation is needed a safe zone needs to be created to allow access and a viable escape route

What is the FIRAS Accreditation?
FIRAS is a third party certification scheme that verifies the competence of a contractor company to design fire protection systems. As a participant in the scheme we employ appropriately skilled design, supervision and operational staff who have been assessed.
- FIRAS certification is strictly controlled to cover only the trade disciplines assessed
- All FIRAS site inspectors have technical and practical knowledge and experience in fire protection
- Each FIRAS Certificated company is required to continue to demonstrate compliance with industry standards and material/product manufacturer installation instructions
- Many customers know little about how fire threatens their staff or business or what their legal obligations are
