Seamless Fire Safety System Upgrade for the Lion Inn

After finding the hotel's fire safety system lacking, we seamlessly installed a new wireless system without any business disruption.

After finding the hotel's fire safety system lacking, we seamlessly installed a new wireless system without any business disruption.

The project was initiated after a routine compliance inspection revealed significant deficiencies in the hotel’s fire safety system. The inspection uncovered that the existing system did not provide comprehensive coverage throughout the building. Certain zones between alarms were too large and contained walking distances that exceeded safety standards. Additionally, the fire alarm panel was found to be inadequate and not fit for purpose. 

The Original Plan

Initially, the plan involved shutting down the hotel for a week to replace the entire fire alarm system. However, this approach was deemed impractical for the hotel’s operations. In response, we developed an alternative plan that allowed the hotel to remain fully operational while the upgrade was carried out. 

We devised a way to install a brand new wireless fire alarm system with no interruption to business operation. This was achieved by switching out each device individually and simultaneously removing the old system components. This approach ensured that we only needed to enter each room once, minimising disruption to the hotel’s operations. During the transition period, both the old and new systems were run concurrently until the old system was completely phased out.

Coordinating a Full Fire Safety System Replacement

The process required meticulous planning and coordination to ensure seamless integration of the new system. Each alert point was replaced with minimal disruption, and the old system was carefully decommissioned room by room. The simultaneous operation of the old and new systems ensured continuous fire safety coverage throughout the hotel during the upgrade process. 

The project was completed successfully without any disruption to the hotel’s operations. The new wireless fire alarm system provides comprehensive coverage, addressing all previously identified deficiencies. The hotel’s fire safety has been significantly enhanced, ensuring compliance with current safety standards and providing peace of mind for both the hotel management and its guests.
