Fire Alarm Installation Costs for Northamptonshire Premises
How Much Does a Fire Alarm Installation Cost? Fire Alarm Installation Costs for Northamptonshire Premises. We explain how we calculate the costs for a Fire Alarm Installation.
What Drives the Overall Price
Building size, number of detectors and number of zones all have a bearing on the overall cost of a fire alarm installation. A small single floor office may require the installation of six to ten detectors, whereas a large warehouse or multi floor building could require dozens of detectors.
Conventional Versus Addressable Systems
A conventional system would involve installing a number of detectors grouped into zones, this type of system is typically the cheapest to install with costs starting from around £500 for a small building such as an office, the cost then increases to £1,500 or more for a larger building such as a warehouse.
Labour and Cable Runs
Wiring costs can vary. Open-plan areas with easy-to-reach ceilings are best for speedy wiring. Partitioned offices, historic buildings and listed buildings, for example, can incur more costs. The cost for labour for a small system is approximately £300-£800 plus. This will obviously increase with long cable runs.
Annual Servicing Contracts
For most systems, there will be 2 service visits per year. The cost for the annual service contract can vary depending on the size of the system, but generally costs around £150 to £400 per year.
