Smoke Alarms for Stairways & Landings
Battery Operated Smoke Alarms
A selection of battery operated ionisation smoke alarms conforming to Grade F of the BS 5839-6:2004, suitable for landings and stairwells.
These alarms do not require a mains power connection and are available in both alkaline and lithium battery powered options.
Mains Powered Smoke Alarms
A selection of mains powered ionisation smoke alarms that conform to Grades D, E and F of BS 5839-6:2004, suitable for landings and stairwells.
Mains powered smoke alarms are available with a choice of alkaline or lithium battery backup cells.
Radio-interlinked Smoke Alarms
A selection of radio-frequency ionisation smoke alarms in battery or mains powered (battery backup) versions, suitable for landings and stairwells.
The battery units comply to Grade F, whilst the mains units comply to D, E and F of BS 5839-6:2004.
We recommend the use of ionisation alarms on landings and stairwells, as rising heat from fires downstairs can fast be detected by ionisation alarms at high elevations. Having smoke detection in these communal areas can often create an early warning to potential fires in lower levels of a building.
Ionisation alarms can detect fumes in the environment created by burning materials, they do not work on the content of smoke in the air so for fast flaming fires they are more effective. With a variety of battery or mains powered alarms and the option of stand-alone or interconnected functionality there is a suitable optical smoke alarm for every application.
