Over the past two decades, wireless fire devices have become a highly specified solution for heritage buildings, overcoming at a stroke most of the challenges and pitfalls that these complex projects can present to fire system specifiers and installers.

While heritage and historic buildings vary hugely in terms of their age, size, purpose and construction, there are factors they all have in common, and these are the things that tend to cause sleepless nights for the people who design modern fire systems. With thick walls, multiple levels, complex layouts, hidden voids and other complications, they were never designed to accommodate modern infrastructure, such as wiring, and usually the opportunity to install new cabling that does not interfere with the fabric of the building is difficult or impossible.

Wireless fire detection and alarm devices supplied by global leader Hyfire have been selected to protect the London Irish Centre, a well-known outpost of Irish culture and community in the heart of England’s capital city.

Global wireless fire detection and alarm devices leader, Hyfire has appointed Ollie Murray as Regional Sales Manager for South East England, where he will oversee the management of existing partners and the development of new client relationships in a key year for the business, which is part of Halma plc.
