Fire Safety and Detection.Installation, Service and Maintenance
Rosse Systems can cater for all your fire alarm requirements – from completely new systems down to replacing broken glass.
We can work on the majority of systems [Notifier, Hochiki, Hyfire, Advanced, Morley, EMS, Gent, Protec, etc]; therefore your ongoing maintenance and fault calls can be completed to the highest standard.
In addition to being able to supply and support standard Fire Alarm / Emergency Lighting Systems, Rosse Systems can also provide a combined Fire Alarm, Emergency Lighting, and Intelligent Signage System.
The system is run from one panel and on the same loop. It enables us to be able to bring on lights in the event of a fire activation and turn off exit signs – directing people away from the fire. Please click on the FIREscape+ link below for further details.

Our Fire Alarm Services
At Rosse Systems we take responsibility for every stage of your fire alarm systems development and implementation including site survey, system design, supply, installation, commissioning, monitoring and ongoing maintenance.
As an NSI-certified and BAFE-registered company, the quality of our service and false alarm management is second to none and all our engineers regularly attend training courses to keep them up to date with the latest standards and technological advancements.
We can supply, install and maintain conventional, addressable, wired, wireless and hybrid systems.
A hybrid system is a combination of both wired and wireless devices. It is ideally suited for hard-to-wire devices or for areas containing Asbestos.
Analogue addressable systems use control panels and detectors (and of course, devices such as interfaces) that communicate with each other through a protocol. These protocols can be open, closed or managed…
- Open protocol – systems may be worked on by most companies as there tends to be no restriction when testing and inspecting a system. The problem with this type of protocol is that companies that are not fully competent in the system can go into the panel and amend its operation. This can have serious consequences that may not be initially obvious.
- Closed protocol – systems are manufactured by the same company. The end user is dependent on just one manufacturer for all parts, servicing, modification and upgrades to the system since no other manufacturer’s products will be compatible. If the supplier delivers poor service or increases their prices, you are not free to take your business elsewhere without completely replacing your fire alarm system, a position no consumer would ever want to be in.
- Managed protocol – systems sit between the other two options. Several independent fire companies usually support them. These companies are in direct competition with each other – which keeps the costs realistic and customer service to a high standard as the end user can move to an alternative company. Manufacturers can ensure that the companies working on their systems are competent by only supplying the protocol to trustworthy fire companies trained by the manufacturer.

What our clients say:
Rosse Systems provided a successful tender for the installation of a wireless fire alarm system at Harewood House. Considerate pre-work planning considered the building being built in 1771, with its contents proving vital in delivering a bespoke designed and installed fire alarm system. All aspects of the installation were carried out competently and in a truly professional manner. Harewood House, Leeds
Rosse Systems were invited to tender for the installation and commissioning of a new Intruder Alarm System (IAS) Grade 3 and additional IP Closed Circuit Television System (CCTV) to upgrade an exhibition gallery to meet Government Indemnity Scheme (GIS) standards. Following a successful bid for the tender Rosse's senior planner meet with Thackray staff and the project manager to walk through the specification and to agree on exact requirements and positioning of sensors, power supplies, IP sockets and new CCTV locations both inside and outside the exhibition gallery. An agreed timetable for the work was implemented and Rosse Systems were punctual, efficient, knowledgeable, and time economical in progressing the work to completion within the agreed time frame. Nothing was too much trouble and liaison with the senior planner ensured that work was completed successfully and to budget; it was a pleasure to work with Rosse Systems staff, and their work was neat and precise.Michael Stanley
Rosse Systems tendered electronic security works at Cartwright Hall Art Gallery back in 2017-18. Rosse coordinated well with the on-site team and was flexible in terms of working in a public building, which was partly open to the public and staff whilst work continued. They were aware of health, safety, and security issues on our site, and with guidance and discussion, they appreciated the needs of a Listed Building and the need to have sensitive interventions within the project delivery. The lead contractor for this project was always available for meetings at short notice and was ready to problem-solve when required. They provided extra staffing to meet our deadlines and an understanding of our requirements was achieved through basic staff training. The project was delivered within acceptable timescales and all additional cost items were agreed upon. Helen Thornton MA, AMA - Cartwright Hall Art Gallery Manager
Wharfebank Industrial Estate was a challenging site due to the limited timescales to deliver a hybrid system. FHP ESS explored the marketplace and found Rosse to be a renown and experienced supplier of networked radio fire systems. Rosse assisted throughout and were able to deliver and meet our client’s expectations from concept to completion. The installation caused minimal disruption whilst maintaining the integrity of fire safety throughout the program. Engineers assigned to the property were complete professionals and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dave Thewlis and his team for future fire related schemes.Wharfebank Industrial Estate
