Fire and security isn’t just about installation, it’s about ongoing reliability.

That means constant site coverage, fast response, and above all engineers who understand the systems they’re attending.

We’re proud to be delivering fire and security solutions across two new school developments for our client, Advanced Learning Partnership Trust.

At Greenfield Academy we’re working with Gemini Electrical Services and at Durham Academy we’re working with KM Electrical.

Our team is installing and commissioning fire and security systems across both projects, helping to provide the essential systems needed to keep pupils and staff safe.

It’s great to be involved in these two projects and to continue working with our client and electrical partners.

Installing a fire or security system is only the first step.

Without regular maintenance, even the best technology can fail when you need it most.
Routine servicing, testing, and proactive maintenance ensure your systems remain compliant, reliable, and fully operational year-round, protecting your premises, people, and assets.

How great is this photo of our Engineers! 💪
We had our monthly Engineer Meeting this week, and while we usually share the more traditional meeting pictures, this photo was just too good not to use!

These meetings make sure feedback is heard, issues are solved and standards are consistent.
We know our engineers are the backbone of CDS Security & Fire, that's why we host these meetings.

We’ve been celebrating for a little while now, but this month makes it official.

CDS Security & Fire began in September 1986...
Four decades in business is something we’re incredibly proud of. Over the years, technology has changed, our team has grown and the industry has evolved, but our commitment to protecting people, businesses and communities has remained at the heart of everything we do.

A huge thank you to our team, customers and partners, past and present, who have been part of the CDS story.

Here’s to 40 years of CDS Security & Fire🥂
