Retail and office fit-outs where layouts are changing
Commercial fire alarms
Commercial fire alarm support for properties, fit-outs and refurbishments.
Fire-alarm work for commercial sites where system alterations, upgrades or project coordination need to be handled alongside the wider building requirement.
Based in Dalton, Thirsk · North Yorkshire
What we can help with
Fire-alarm work that coordinates with the building and the wider project.
Commercial fire-alarm work is often tied closely to the electrical installation, emergency lighting, access arrangements and final building layout. On a fit-out or refurbishment, changes in one area can affect several others.
Addisons can support fire-alarm installations, alterations, extensions and remedial works in commercial buildings, retail environments, offices, education sites and managed property. The aim is to understand the system in context rather than treat it as a detached package.
Where existing equipment is involved, the more information you can provide on the current system, drawings and proposed changes, the quicker we can identify what needs further review.

Common questions
Useful things to know before you get in touch.
If your question is more specific, call the office on 01845 595 103.
Can fire-alarm work be coordinated with electrical fit-out works?+
Yes. This is particularly useful on refurbishments and fit-outs where containment, power, emergency lighting and fire-alarm changes are happening within the same programme.
Can you alter an existing commercial fire-alarm system?+
Potentially, yes. Send the available system information, drawings, photos or previous records and we can review the requirement and compatibility considerations.
Do you support property managers as well as contractors?+
Yes. The service is intended for both project-led work and ongoing managed-property requirements.
What should we send for a fire-alarm tender?+
Drawings, specification, cause-and-effect information if available, equipment schedules, programme dates and details of any existing system are all useful.
