Active Fire Equipment Survey

Home/Services/Compliance/Active Fire Equipment Asset Survey

An active fire equipment asset survey identifies and records all key firefighting systems within a building—such as fire extinguishers, fire alarm panels, emergency lighting, automatic detection systems, and smoke vents. These assets are critical to a building’s fire strategy and must be regularly tested, inspected, and maintained to ensure these elements of fire safety are fully operational, in good condition and can be relied upon in the event of an emergency.

The survey helps duty holders track and manage these assets through a detailed fire strategy plan and asset register, supporting overall fire safety compliance. We can provide the updated asset drawing in either CAD or PDF format to suit your needs.

At Sircle, we work closely with you to define a clear survey scope, capturing detailed information about the location and condition of your fire safety equipment. This data is added to accurate, up-to-date drawings that support your fire strategy.

With extensive experience in CAD and technical drawing, we deliver exactly the format and detail you need to meet your fire safety responsibilities. Our service doesn’t stop at the survey—we offer ongoing support through regular updates, audits, and a rolling inspection program to keep your asset records accurate and compliant.

The Benefits of an Active Fire Equipment Asset Survey

  • Improved Fire Safety Compliance
    A detailed asset survey ensures all fire safety equipment is accounted for, assessed, and maintained in line with UK regulations and British Standards. It helps identify non-conformances early, reducing risk and supporting legal compliance.
  • Operational Efficiency and Support
    With a clear view of all active fire protection systems, facilities and compliance teams can manage maintenance more efficiently. Ongoing updates and surveys help streamline inspections and reduce disruption to daily operations.
  • Accurate Budget and Lifecycle Planning
    Knowing the condition and location of each asset allows for informed budget forecasting and proactive maintenance or replacement planning. This helps avoid unexpected costs and aligns with long-term investment strategies.
  • Enhanced Record Keeping and Transparency
    An up-to-date asset register improves visibility for estate managers and duty holders. It supports inspections, audits, and internal reporting, ensuring everyone has access to reliable, centralised fire safety data.
