Fire Alarms from AM Security
In an emergency, every second counts. A reliable fire alarm system is the most critical line of defence for your home or business, providing the early warning needed to protect what matters most—lives and property. At AM Security, we understand that true security goes beyond intrusion. Our comprehensive fire alarms are designed to meet the highest safety standards, giving you the peace of mind that comes with superior fire protection.
Don’t wait until it’s too late. A single smoke detector is a good start, but a comprehensive fire alarm system from AM Security is the only way to ensure maximum protection.
Beyond the Beep: Intelligent Fire Protection
A modern smoke alarm is far more than just a noisy box on the ceiling. Our systems use advanced technology to detect a fire at its earliest stage, often before you even see or smell smoke. We offer a range of solutions, from simple, effective smoke detector units to fully integrated, professionally monitored systems.
Our offerings include:
- Photoelectric Smoke Detectors: Ideal for slow, smouldering fires often caused by electrical faults or unattended candles.
- Ionisation Smoke Detectors: Susceptible to fast-flaming fires, like those involving paper or cooking grease.
- Heat Detectors are perfect for kitchens, garages, and other areas where steam or dust could cause a false alarm.
- Carbon Monoxide (CO) Alarms: These detectors are an essential addition to any home or business and alert you to the presence of this silent, odourless, and deadly gas.
- Integrated Fire Alarm Systems: Connect all your sensors to a central control panel, which provides precise location information and can even automatically alert our monitoring station and the fire department.

What is the difference between a smoke alarm and a smoke detector?
While the terms are often used interchangeably, a smoke detector is typically a component of a larger system that sends a signal to a control panel, while a smoke alarm is a standalone unit that contains both the sensor and the siren in one device.
How many smoke detectors do I need in my home?
It is recommended to have a smoke alarm on every level of your home, inside each bedroom, and outside every sleeping area. For the best protection, installing heat detectors in kitchens and garages is also a good idea, where smoke alarms may be prone to false alarms.
How often should I test my fire alarms?
You should test each smoke detector and fire alarm at least once a month. You should also replace the batteries in battery-powered units annually and replace the entire unit every 10 years, as the sensors can degrade over time.
