Our mission is to provide a world-class pre-emergency service, helping to prevent disasters. It’s our job to formulate solutions, inspire trust, remove stress and disruption, and exceed expectations. Once upon a time, long ago, way back in the last century (1986 to be precise), the present senior partner founded Dorset Fire Protection in the garden shed! Sound familiar? Well, I suppose this is the story of many businesses, but not quite so many businesses get as far as chapter 1, so we are very pleased to have reached chapter 30! And it’s all down to the way we look after people.
Early warning in the event of a fire is a key part of an effective fire safety strategy. Whether you need a new system installed, a system upgrade, or simply a routine service and maintenance, we can help you every step of the way. Whatever type of fire alarm system you require, our experienced and qualified engineers are here to ensure that you comply with all relevant safety standards.
This type of training is often considered boring and is regarded as a ‘tick-box’ exercise, but here at DFP our trainers make it their business to turn these sessions into a hands-on, fun activity, which is always well received by the delegates. Whilst online training has its place, nothing replaces the opportunity to actually grasp a fire extinguisher and face the flames!
Fire safety maintenance - we help keep your fire protection equipment ready for action
We hope your fire safety equipment never has to be put to the test, but if it does we know that 99% reliability is not good enough. You need to know that the equipment is going to function in the right way at the right time. We offer a range of maintenance packages to suit the different needs of our clients, all delivered by our qualified, enthusiastic engineers.
Fire risk assessment - we can provide a clear prioritised action plan to assist implementation
Your fire risk assessment should be carried out by a competent person, and if you do not have the in-house expertise, our qualified assessors will assist you. Rather than wade in and scare you with a load of legislation, we prefer to work with you, explaining our recommendations, and tailoring our solutions to the needs and constraints of your organisation.
Fire extinguishers - we provide the most efficient layout for your fire extinguishers
Each year in excess of 80% of fires in industrial premises are put out using fire extinguishers. These are not big fires, but they would have been 5 minutes later! The value of the right fire extinguisher in the right place, at the right time, is something that thousands of people can bear witness to. Our qualified team helps prepare you for that unplanned emergency.
Emergency lighting - we provide the full installation and maintenance package
Most buildings require emergency lighting in order to be able to evacuate the premises safely in the event of power failure. Many of our clients are moving over to LED emergency lighting as part of a drive to reduce energy consumption and remove the need for replacing fluorescent tubes routinely. We can help you implement a replacement plan.
Electrical services - we provide Electrical Installation Condition Reports and PAT testing
40% of fires are attributed to faulty electrical equipment, so it makes good sense to check your electrical appliances periodically. As an NICEIC approved contractor we can help you with your 5 yearly electrical installation condition reports as well as periodic PAT testing of your portable electrical appliances.
