Commercial Fire Risk Assessments in Kettering
A fire risk assessment considers fire hazards, people who may be at risk and whether the precautions at the premises are suitable. The scope depends on the building, occupancy and activities taking place. Our assessments are intended to give clients a useful action plan rather than simply another document to file away.
We work with offices, shops, warehouses, hospitality premises, schools, care settings, HMOs and property portfolios in and around Kettering. Coverage also includes Barton Seagrave, Burton Latimer, Desborough and surrounding North Northamptonshire areas.

Fire Safety Responsibilities
For many non-domestic premises, the Responsible Person has duties under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. A suitable fire risk assessment should reflect the actual premises and should be reviewed when relevant changes occur. See the GOV.UK fire risk assessment guidance for official information.
Fire Safety Services Following an Assessment
Where an assessment identifies work requiring attention, AK Fire Safety can also support clients with fire alarm maintenance, emergency lighting, fire extinguishers and fire door services.
