Upton upon Severn is a small town with a big visitor trade. Independent shops line the high street, pubs and hotels welcome guests from the river and the surrounding countryside, and many businesses trade from historic buildings with narrow staircases, old timber and few obvious escape routes. These are exactly the places where fire safety needs to be thought through carefully.
CTS Fire is a local fire and security specialist with over 30 years of experience. We are based in Evesham and provide fire safety and security services across Worcestershire and Gloucestershire, so we are never far away when you need a survey, a service visit or an urgent repair.
A fire risk assessment is the legal starting point for every business premises, and it shapes everything else you need to install or maintain. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must carry out and keep up to date a fire risk assessment, whether you run a one-room shop or a 20-bedroom hotel.
We talk you through the results in plain English and can then carry out any alarm, lighting or extinguisher work the assessment recommends.

The right fire alarm depends on your building. A small shop may need a simple system, while a hotel or pub with sleeping accommodation needs a more comprehensive design. We design, install and maintain systems to BS 5839-1, the British Standard for commercial fire detection and alarms.
Historic buildings need care. We plan detector positions and cable routes to protect the fabric of the building and keep disruption to your trading to a minimum. Where drilling and visible cabling are a concern, we can discuss alternatives such as wireless systems.
Commercial systems should be inspected and serviced periodically, typically every six months under BS 5839-1. We test detectors, call points, sounders and the control panel, replace faulty parts and give you a written report. Optional monitoring connects your alarm to a 24/7 receiving centre so a fire is reported even when your premises are empty overnight.
If the power fails or smoke fills a corridor, emergency lighting is what guides people out. It is a legal requirement for most commercial premises. Lights should be checked monthly and given a full-duration test once a year, with the results recorded. We install emergency lighting to BS 5266-1 and carry out testing and certification, so your records are always up to date.
The right extinguisher in the right place can stop a small fire from becoming a disaster. We supply and position extinguishers to match the risks in each area, such as kitchens, bars, offices and storerooms, and carry out annual servicing in line with BS 5306-3.
Fire safety is only half of protecting your premises. We also design and install CCTV and door access control for shops, pubs, hotels and offices, so you can see what is happening on site and control who comes and goes. Systems can be linked with your fire alarm so that doors release safely in an emergency.
Every type of business has its own risks, and we shape our advice around yours.
