Read more about fire prevention, safety and evacuation for educational buildings.
With all of the focus on residential buildings in the aftermath of Grenfell, it is easy to overlook the problems faced by those in charge of fire prevention, safety and evacuation for educational buildings.

Such buildings can be a headache for fire installers and building managers, although many of these issues can be overcome with wireless fire devices.

With so much focus on high-rise residential buildings and those with cladding over the past few years, it’s easy to overlook the fact that many residential buildings fit into neither of these categories, but are still impacted by the changes that have been made to fire regulations, fire system specifications and evacuation best practice since 2017.

One key example is older residential blocks, many dating from the Victorian period to the 1930s, which are still commonly found in cities like London and Edinburgh. Although these blocks may not be at risk from defective cladding, and they are usually no higher than five or six floors, they do present their own unique challenges in terms of fire safety and evacuation, as well as the installation of the fire system itself.
