Brandmeldinstallaties aanleggen
In compliance with legal regulations, various establishments such as nursing homes, daycare centers, event halls, large car dealerships and garages, hotels (accommodation facilities), prisons, large office buildings (exceeding 500m2), schools, major retail stores, shopping malls, and enclosed parking garages are required to have fire alarm and evacuation systems installed. These systems are particularly necessary in areas that are difficult to monitor. DETEC specializes in providing, installing, and maintaining professional security systems, including fire alarm systems. We are dedicated to ensuring your safety year-round.
The purpose of a fire alarm system
Installing fire alarm systems is something we naturally do with good reason. Especially in buildings that are not very easy to oversee, it can sometimes take a long time for a fire to be noticed. In such cases, having such systems is a necessity, especially when considering the safety of yourself and those around you. Moreover, installing fire alarm systems is important when you are unable to warn people in the same building in a timely manner when a fire is raging in the structure. The building is then considered ‘unmanned.’ The purpose of a fire alarm system in a building is to detect, localize, and signal the beginning of a fire at an early stage, so that firefighting can start promptly. Measures can be taken to secure the safety of humans, animals, inventory, buildings, and the environment.
Detecting and locating a fire
As previously mentioned, DETEC can install a fire alarm system to facilitate swift evacuation of individuals from the building in case of a fire. How does it work? The fire alarm system is engineered to promptly detect and locate fires. Once a fire is detected, our justice-approved PAC 108 control room or the fire brigade’s control room (RAC) is immediately alerted. Subsequently, all necessary fire safety measures are activated, ensuring timely evacuation and safety of the occupants.
Installing fire alarm systems is imperative when fire safety provisions rely on their functionality. One such example is the evacuation alarm system. However, this isn’t the only scenario where fire safety provisions necessitate a fire alarm system. Several other fire safety measures also depend on the presence of a fire alarm system:
- Automatic electromagnetic hold-open devices for self-closing doors;
- Pressure differential systems;
- Smoke and heat ventilation systems;
- Fire dampers.

Maintenance and 24-hour service
It is very important that all systems work when they are most needed and that they don’t trigger unneccessary alarms. Therefor, it is important that we maintain the alarm system every year and that a service technician is on site within 24 hours to solve any malfunctions. We offer maintenance and service contracts on all our alarm systems. This contract is also an insurance obligation, as is the alarm center contract.
