Disabled Refuge Systems
Across Kent & Surronding Areas
Fire-Tech Systems supplies and installs compliant disabled refuge systems for commercial and public buildings across Kent. These systems enable people with mobility issues to communicate with emergency responders from designated refuge points during an evacuation.
Typically located within fire-protected stairwells or lobbies, a refuge area must have a hands-free, two-way voice communication system linking to a central control panel. We supply solutions tailored to your building layout and regulatory obligations. As part of the installation, we handle commissioning, user testing, and full documentation. We also offer scheduled testing and repair services to keep your system compliant.

Support Safe Evacuation with
Two-Way Refuge Systems
In multi-storey or complex buildings, disabled refuge systems allow people with reduced mobility to call for help during a fire.
We install:
Two-Way Emergency Voice Communication (EVC): Compliant with BS 5839-9, allowing trapped individuals to communicate with building staff.
Wall-Mounted Call Units: Installed at refuge points with hands-free speech and visual indicators.
Central Control Panels: Allowing reception or security to monitor and respond quickly.
Ensure your premises supports inclusive evacuation procedures with our tested and certified solutions.
Ensuring Communication for
Safe Assisted Evacuation
Disabled refuge systems provide a vital lifeline for people who may not be able to evacuate a building quickly or independently during an emergency. These systems allow two-way communication from refuge points, often located on protected stairwells or lobbies, to a central control panel.
Fire-Tech Systems designs and installs disabled refuge solutions for buildings across Kent, including offices, schools, residential blocks, and care facilities. Our systems include call panels, braille signage, and fire-rated wiring to ensure reliable communication even under fire conditions.
We also integrate alarm pull cords and assistance indicators in accessible toilets, ensuring that help can be summoned from all necessary locations.
