Cathedral Square

Guildford, Surrey, GU2

Supply, installation, commission and maintenance of fire alarm system

Building 1000 & 2000 Cathedral is a spacious office campus of 115,000sq ft. It provides office space to RBS, Coutts and Avaya with further Grade A accommodation which will be available on completion. The property is also to provide a stunning new reception and cafe facility for occupants to benefit from.

DT Fire Systems provide the site maintenance of the addressable fire alarm system in the building. This is fully networked and has fire beam detectors, fire extinguishers, atrium smoke vent louvres and dry risers on site. We were then contracted in 2017 to supply, install and commission a new fire system to BS5839 – 1 L1 category as part of the Overbury refurbishment project upgrade.

As part of the CAT A refurbishment of the office premises, we were required to provide a fully operational fire alarm system throughout the building using the existing system whilst the works were carried out.

DT Fire Systems then managed the change over to the new system and wiring as the phases were completed. This made the project more complex however we achieved exactly what was required without any complications. During this project we were also contracted to complete the Avaya office space providing a new fire alarm system.

DT Fire Systems were delighted to be involved with the stunning refurbishment of these offices in Guildford, Surrey.
