What's included in our Milton Keynes fire alarm service?
Detector & Call Point Testing
Every smoke detector, heat detector, and manual call point individually tested to confirm it activates correctly and communicates with the fire alarm panel.
Cause & Effect Verification
We verify the programmed cause and effect matrix — confirming sounder circuits activate in the right zones, fire doors release, HVAC systems shut down, and signals reach your alarm receiving centre.
Standby Battery Assessment
Batteries tested under load to confirm they can sustain the system for the required duration (typically 24 hours standby plus 30 minutes alarm). Batteries approaching end of life flagged before they fail.
Sounder & Visual Alarm Testing
Every sounder and visual alarm device tested for output level and coverage. BS 5839-1 requires 65dB(A) minimum at bed head level in sleeping risks. We measure and record actual levels.
Zone Plan Review
Zone plans checked against the actual installation and updated where changes have been made — particularly important in commercial buildings that have undergone refurbishment.
Log Book & Documentation
We review your fire alarm log book, check weekly tests are being recorded, and update service records. A full service report provided detailing all findings and recommended actions.

First class service. From the moment we got in touch with ProConform it was obvious this was a professional company who took the time to understand our requirements. Their service has been excellent, with minimum impact to our day to day operations and taken the overhead of our compliance obligations.

I asked ProConform to help turn my garage into a space for the dogs — somewhere to hose them down and keep them warm afterwards. They installed a new consumer unit, added lighting and a couple of sockets, and the finish is really tidy. Communication was clear from start to finish, they arrived when they said they would, and they tested everything before leaving. The workmanship is spot on and the place was left clean.

Excellent work, provided a full explanation of what was required and delivered the work at a time that was suitable to our business. Highly recommend.

I've used Richard three times now, and each experience has been outstanding. Most recently, he installed an induction hob and replaced a wired bathroom mirror. As with previous work — including replacing our garden lights and installing a power supply for an awning — everything was completed on time and to an exceptional standard. Richard's attention to detail, professionalism, and skill are second to none.
Frequently Asked Questions — Fire Alarm Testing in Milton Keynes
How often should a commercial fire alarm be serviced?
BS 5839-1 requires a minimum of two services per year (every six months) carried out by a competent fire alarm engineer. Between professional visits, the responsible person should conduct a weekly call point test and record it in the fire alarm log book.
What is cause and effect testing and why does it matter?
Cause and effect testing confirms that when a specific device activates (the cause), the system triggers the correct response (the effect). For example, a detector in a server room might need to trigger a gas suppression system rather than just sounders. Without proper cause and effect verification, your Milton Keynes property's system may not respond appropriately in a real fire scenario.
Do you test fire alarm systems connected to monitoring centres in Milton Keynes?
Yes. We test the full signal path from detector activation through to alarm receiving centre (ARC) confirmation. We coordinate with your monitoring provider in advance to ensure test signals are handled correctly.
What are the legal consequences of not servicing a fire alarm system?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must ensure fire detection and alarm systems are maintained in working order. Failure can result in enforcement notices, prohibition notices (closing the building), and criminal prosecution with unlimited fines.
