TTS Fire & Security Ltd. have a maintenance plan to suit at reasonable rates and we don't tie you in to long term contracts. Quite simply we ask you to sign a non binding 12 month contract  instructing us to carry out the service. We then carry out the work to your complete satisfaction and issue a work sheet and  compliance certificate if your system is compliant. 
 

We are able to undertake all aspects of maintaining your equipment within the UK including Emergency Lighting and Fire Extinguishers. Overseas we offer to provide training so that you are fully conversant with all aspects of keeping your system fully operational to local requirements and legislation.  TTS Fire & Security Ltd. also maintain and service existing conventional "hard wired" fire alarm systems within the UK. We hold spares of Gent, Apollo, Ziton, KAC, etc. All fire systems maintained to BS 5839. Remember as a condition of meeting BS 5839 Part 1 the system must be regularly inspected and maintained at least every 6  months. This is in addition to duties required by the system user. See our BS 5839 definition guide A guide to BS 5839.
