A Waking Watch is a system whereby highly trained fire marshals continually patrol the interior and exterior of a building in order to detect a fire, raise the alarm and evacuate the building. A Waking watch should always be recognised as a reassuring and responsive solution to any fire management requirements. It is effectively a 24-hour surveillance/monitoring of any multiple occupancy buildings. Trained Fire Safety Officers will monitor and patrol the building(s) searching for signs of fire and fire hazards. These patrols are conducted at regular intervals throughout a 24hr period with real-time reports being generated at the time of patrol…

Upon arrival, NCS fire officers place NFC tag points in key areas for our fire marshals to scan on their patrols. This gives our clients real-time feedback and reports, highlighting that all hazard points are routinely patrolled.

In the event of a fire alarm, our team of fire marshals will alert the emergency services, locate the cause of the alarm, alert everybody to the emergency, and if required, will evacuate the building in accordance to the buildings fire evacuation plan. Kitted with high-quality and durable fire safety equipment, NCS fire marshals will ensure your residents sleep soundly at night.
