Regular fire inspections and testing ensures every component of your fire safety systems will perform correctly in an emergency. Our fire inspection services cover the routine servicing, checking, and certification of installed equipment, so issues are found early and rectified before they become critical. If you’re still setting up, we handle fire equipment installations.
In line with AS1851:2012, assets are maintained on monthly, quarterly, bi-annually, and annual inspection schedules to verify operation, confirm nothing is damaged or expired, and keep your property fully compliant with Australian fire safety regulations.

Our fire inspection services provide systematic, standards-aligned checks across all key assets, so each device and system is verified, documented, and ready.
We inspect and test your fire alarms, detectors, and fire panels to confirm correct operation, supervision, and fault reporting. This includes checking indications on the panel, confirming detector function, and verifying that batteries and power supplies are healthy. The goal is simple. Alarms activate when they should, and your panel clearly communicates events and faults so the right action can be taken fast.
We carry out scheduled inspection checks such as sprinkler flow tests, hydrant condition checks, and pump operation tests to ensure water-based systems respond as intended. Valves, gauges, and associated controls are visually inspected and function-tested on their AS 1851:2012 intervals, helping confirm adequate flow and pressure so suppression systems can perform when needed. Installed systems are optimised via passive fire protection that preserves compartments.
We verify that fire extinguishers and hose reels are present, accessible, correctly mounted, within service date, and in good condition. Pressure, hoses, seals, and nozzles are checked, units are tagged and recorded so you have a clear status for audits. If something is out-of-date or defective, we tag it immediately and arrange prompt replacement or repair.
We test exit and emergency lighting for function and duration to support safe evacuation, and check fire doors for closing action, clearances, seals, and hardware condition. These measures protect escape routes by keeping smoke and fire contained and by guiding occupants to safety, which is critical to overall building performance during an incident.

We start by identifying the fire safety assets on site and confirming the required servicing intervals in line with AS 1851:2012. We help organise a practical schedule that suits your operating hours and access requirements.

Our fire technicians attend site and complete the required checks using structured, AS 1851-aligned checklists. We verify each item is present, accessible, within date, and functioning correctly so small issues are picked up early before they become critical failures.
