Fire Alarm Servicing for Salons and Barbershops
Salons and barbershops trade on chair time, so fire alarm work needs to happen without closing the floor. FirePulse combines the monitored alarm, servicing and certification into one monthly contract with ADS Group.
What makes a salon different
Takings are hours in the chair. A closure for installation work is money, and it is the main reason alarm work gets pushed back.
Salons also often occupy a unit inside a larger building, sometimes above or beside other businesses, so what happens when an alarm activates out of hours matters more than the sounder on the wall.
Small teams mean fire alarm admin lands on the owner, alongside everything else on the counter.
Areas the survey looks at
Salon floor
An occupied open area where an alarm must be heard over noise and dryers.
Back room and stock
Storage and staff areas with different detection considerations.
Shared buildings
Units where premises sit above, below or beside other businesses.
Out of hours
Long closed periods where a monitored alarm matters more than a local sounder.
Records and inspections
Landlords and insurers commonly ask for fire alarm documentation on commercial units.
Knowing where the servicing records and certification are removes most of the pressure from that request.
What FirePulse covers for this premises type
- Monitored fire alarm, specified from a survey of the premises
- Ongoing servicing under one monthly contract
- The relevant FirePulse servicing certification
- One supplier, one number and one predictable monthly figure
FirePulse covers the monitored fire alarm, its servicing and the relevant servicing certification. It does not cover every fire safety responsibility a premises may have, and no inspection outcome is promised.
Common questions
Do we have to close the salon for installation?
Where the approved FirePulse installation applies, installation is completed in one working day. The survey confirms it for your unit.
Is the alarm monitored?
Yes. FirePulse includes a monitored fire alarm, so an activation is signalled rather than only sounding in a closed unit.
What is the monthly cost?
It depends on the premises and the system it needs. The figure is confirmed in writing after the survey.
We rent the unit. Can we still do this?
Yes, though it is worth speaking to your landlord about the works in advance. Tell us the arrangement and we will work with it.
