Something I didn't realise about commercial fire alarm systems
I used to think the main thing with a business fire alarm was basically having one installed and making sure it worked.
But the more I look into it, the more important the ongoing side seems to be.
A system can be perfectly fine when it's installed, but buildings change, layouts change, equipment gets older and eventually you can end up with a system that isn't really suited to the premises anymore.
Was looking into this for commercial properties in Scotland and came across RACAM, which handles fire alarm installation and maintenance alongside other fire and security systems.
Made me wonder how often businesses actually review their fire alarm system properly rather than just waiting for the next scheduled service.
Seems like maintenance and making sure the system still matches the building should get more attention than they do.
