FIRE SAFETY & DISASTER RECOVERY


Jeremy said: “Building enhanced safety features for those with physical, visual or hearing disabilities into the fire system is also particularly important for hotel environments to aid evacuation. Combining rooms with disability safety features with disabled refuges and external monitoring for this building significantly enhances guest safety.”


Residential and retail The first of the three residential blocks involved in the WLS installation features a cloud-based access control system, which was pre-programmed offsite prior to installation. WLS has integrated this with the door entry system, which controls access to an inner and outer lobby from where a concierge can call individual apartments, with a video handset and panel installed in each apartment. The access control system also controls entry to the residents’ roof terrace and the communal areas at basement level, which include bike stores and parking.


WLS has also installed a fire detection and alarm system at basement level and for all the staircases and common areas on the ground floor.


CCTV completes the security arrangements for this block as part of a phase II-wide CCTV installation by WLS involving more than 50 cameras across the site, all of which are monitored centrally from a dedicated security room in one of the residential blocks.

WLS has also installed a fob and keypad based access control system in two further blocks as part of the same phase of works, providing secure access to the basement, ground level entrances, roof terraces and podium level bike stores. The company has also installed a fire detection and alarm system across the ground floor retail accommodation, and basement car park along with disabled refuges for each block at basement level.


All fire and security provision is monitored centrally in the security room in one of the residential blocks, with the varied fire alarms networked together. This ensures that the management team in neighbouring buildings can be alerted to an incident and take appropriate action if a fire is detected anywhere on the complex.


Jeremy added: “While the fire detection and alert systems are largely located in the common areas of each building, the system is so sophisticated that the exact sensor that has triggered the alarm can be identified from the safety and security control room so that informed decisions can be taken about the level of risk for each building and the phasing of any evacuation.”


Rapid progress WLS’ installation at the project is now complete and the development is moving on to phase III.
