A waking watch service involves trained security officers patrolling a residential building to monitor fire risks and ensure occupants can be alerted quickly if a fire occurs. It’s commonly used when fire alarm systems are not fully operational or when temporary fire safety monitoring is required.
A waking watch is usually required when a building’s fire alarm system fails, when fire safety risks are identified during an inspection, or when temporary fire safety measures are needed until permanent systems are repaired or installed.
A waking watch is typically used in residential buildings, such as apartment blocks and high-rise properties. Fire watch services are more common in commercial sites, warehouses, and construction projects where security officers monitor fire risks and respond quickly if hazards appear.
A fire watch security guard patrols the property to identify potential fire hazards, monitor high-risk areas, ensure fire exits remain clear, and alert occupants or emergency services if a fire or safety risk is detected.
A waking watch service is usually temporary and remains in place until the building’s fire alarm system or other fire safety measures are repaired, upgraded, or fully operational again.
Waking watch service costs can vary depending on your specific requirements. Pricing is typically based on an hourly rate per officer and will depend on factors such as the duration of cover, the location of the site (with areas like London often costing more), and the welfare facilities available on-site. The best way to get an accurate price is to speak directly with our team, who can provide a tailored quote over the phone.
That’s not a problem—many clients aren’t 100% sure what level of cover is required. Our team will guide you through the process based on your building type, size, and current fire safety situation, whether it’s residential or commercial.
