Installation

Directly-employed engineers with experience installing PAVA across rail possessions, airside terminals, live government buildings, retail centres, and student accommodation — safety-first, minimal disruption, and built to the design every time.

Our installation teams hold the certifications required to work in restricted and sensitive environments, including PTS for rail, ECS for electrical, CSCS for construction sites, and DBS where the venue requires it.

Scope

What We Install

01
First & Second Fix Cabling

Containment, FP200/MICC fire-rated cable, structured network cabling, and termination — installed to BS 7671 and the project specification.

02
Loudspeaker Installation

Ceiling-mount, surface-mount, projector, line-array, and ATEX hazardous-area loudspeakers — installed at design positions with appropriate fixings for the building fabric.

03
Rack Positioning & Connection

Pre-fabricated racks positioned, levelled, secured, and connected to building services — mains, earth, fire-alarm, and network.

04
Microphones & Devices

Fireman’s microphones, paging consoles, dispatcher stations, hearing-loop pads, and accessibility equipment installed at agreed operator positions.

05
Interface Wiring

Hardwired interfaces to fire alarm panels, BMS / SCADA, security systems, and building access control — matched to the cause-and-effect matrix.

06
Pre-Commissioning Tests

Continuity, insulation resistance, and circuit-impedance testing on every loudspeaker leg before energisation. Test results recorded for the handover pack.

Where We Work

Specialist Environments

Rail Possessions

PTS-certified engineers working under Network Rail possession arrangements — mainline stations, depots, platforms, and tunnel environments. Method statements and risk assessments aligned to NR/L2/OHS standards.

Live Public Buildings

Out-of-hours and phased delivery for buildings that cannot close — courts, retail centres, student accommodation, hospitals, and educational campuses. Marshalling panels and parallel-running used to maintain protection throughout the changeover.

Government & Secure Sites

DBS-checked engineers for sites with vetting requirements — magistrates’ courts, civic buildings, and public-sector facilities operating under security clearance regimes.

Heritage & Listed Buildings

Sympathetic installation methods for listed and historic buildings — concealed cable routing, surface-finish protection, and equipment selection that respects the architectural fabric.
