Why Fire Alarms Matter

Picture this: it’s the middle of the night, everything is calm, and the house or office is quiet. Suddenly, an alarm sounds. That warning could mean the difference between a close call and a devastating loss.

That’s the role of a fire alarm system quietly protecting you every day until the moment you need it most. At Oakpark Group, we’ve spent over 40 years designing, installing, and maintaining fire detection systems for homes, schools and businesses across Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Northamptonshire and surrounding counties.

Tailored Fire Alarm Systems for Every Property

No two buildings are the same, and neither are their fire risks. That’s why Oakpark Group provides bespoke fire alarm systems, designed around your space and needs.

  • Home fire alarms – simple, reliable smoke detectors that give families peace of mind.
  • Commercial fire alarms – bespoke solutions ranging from heat sensors in kitchens to advanced detection systems in server rooms, right through to fully networked alarm systems across large premises.

Whether it’s a family home in Buckinghamshire or a university campus in Oxfordshire, Oakpark delivers the right level of protection without compromise.

Meeting Legal and Insurance Requirements

For businesses, having a fire alarm is not optional. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires employers and landlords to provide adequate fire detection and warning systems. Insurance providers also often insist that alarms are designed, installed and serviced by accredited contractors.

Oakpark Group is BAFE SP203-1 accredited, which means our systems meet the highest industry standards. Choosing an accredited installer not only ensures compliance but also helps safeguard your insurance cover.

More Than Just an Alarm: Immediate Response

A fire alarm isn’t only about making noise, it’s about triggering the right action.

With Oakpark Group, every alarm signal can be connected to our Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC). If there’s a fire, the ARC notifies the fire service immediately, ensuring help is dispatched within seconds.

That rapid response can save lives, property and livelihoods.

Fire Alarm Servicing and Ongoing Care

A fire alarm is only effective if it works properly. That’s why regular maintenance is essential. Oakpark makes this straightforward:

  • Every installation includes a 12-month parts and service warranty.
  • After that, you can choose a simple rolling annual service plan.
  • Already have a fire alarm system? Our engineers can service and maintain it, even if it was installed by another provider.

This long-term support means your system stays reliable year after year.

Case Study: Thornton College

Fire safety is especially critical in education settings, where protecting staff and students is paramount. At Thornton College, an all-girls school in Buckinghamshire, Oakpark recently delivered a major upgrade to a Hyfire wireless fire alarm system. The project involved more than 740 wireless devices across a complex, historic site, demonstrating how modern fire protection can be adapted to challenging buildings.
