RESIDENTIAL AND DOMESTIC

Today’s working and residential buildings require the highest level of fire protection, to reduce the threat of damage or loss, and to ensure the optimum safety of inhabitants.

At EFS, we design, install and maintain residential fire sprinkler systems across the UK. Our fully qualified team works to the highest standards, meeting the latest building regulations and British Standards BS9251 code of practice. Our installations are also supported by our 24-hour call out service.

From large-scale residential developments to individual domestic requirements, our 35 years’ experience and professionalism mean that we are a ‘go to’ supplier for prompt and effective service. Our team is fully qualified and we use the latest materials and systems to maximise our clients’ budgets and minimise disruption to their developments.

Offering complete peace-of-mind that you have taken every precaution to protect your property and those who work or live in your developments, we can advise and support you on projects of all sizes.

COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENTS

Fire prevention and protection systems save lives, but they also improve the way that we plan, create and enhance spaces for people to live and work.

In public spaces such as local authority buildings, care homes, schools and student accommodation, duty of care requires that developments are built or subsequently equipped with fire protection systems.

At EFS, our knowledge and experience enables us to help developers to install the right solutions to:

Reduce the distance required between buildings by up to 50 per cent, to maximise development space
Reduce the required number of staircases as a means of escape for occupied space over 4.5m above ground level
Increase travel distances on common escapes

Develop ‘open plan’ designs in three-storey buildings
Increase the number of permitted beds in protected areas
Install fire doors which do not require self-closing devices
Achieve the optimum conditions for emergency fire services access

Case Study:
LEIGH TERRACE, LEIGH-ON-SEA

When a client approached EFS directly with an exciting grand design perched on a hill overlooking the Thames Estuary, we grabbed the project. This high-spec build, located outside Leigh-on-Sea, is being created for discerning residents to spend their downtime. EFS has grown its domestic portfolio over the last few years and this spectacular home is an ideal showcase for our work.

The simplicity of its modern, three-story construction requires a sprinkler system that remains as unobtrusive as possible but without losing its effectiveness. Working alongside the building contractor, Flush Group, we’re now in the final stages of the job. This steel, timber and glass construction has become one of the stand-out buildings to be found on the Essex coast.

And, for the price of an average British holiday, the owners and soon-to-be residents of Leigh Terrace have protected their magnificent home.
