Passive Fire Protection

Passive fire protection (PFP) is a form of fire safety provision that remains dormant, or inert, during normal conditions but becomes active in a fire situation. It is an integral component of structural fire protection in a building, which is designed to contain fires or slow their spread. The purpose of PFP is to contain the spread of fire for sufficient time to permit i) the safe evacuation of all occupants of the premises and ii) the arrival of the fire brigade.

The person responsible for fire safety also has a duty of care towards any members of the emergency services, e.g. fire fighters, who may have to enter the premises during the course of a fire; in slowing the spread of flames, smoke and hot gases, PFP also serves to ensure the building remains as safe as possible for entry in this situation.

Our qualified fire engineers can assess, advise and install the appropriate level of protection required.

Our Approach

Our engineers are able to provide both fire compartmentation surveys and fire door surveys. We are also then on hand to support with any of the remedial works required following the completion of the reports.

Our fire door reports come complete with photographs and a comprehensive spreadsheet detailing if the doors have passed or failed, and the reason why.

If required, we can then provide a quote for any rectification works to ensure you comply with current fire door regulations.

What Our Clients Have To Say

We also provide a range of reliable products to support your fire service needs. Check them out below.

Amanda Thomas
The Bank

"The 911 Fire Services team were a recommendation. Previously, we were a client of Chubb Fire for several years. After using such a large company (Chubb), it became apparent that we were paying a higher cost for the same services 911 provides. Ian and Steve are very proactive in their approach to our fire needs. They are very in-depth and have a great awareness of fire safety and legislation. The provide an exhaustive amount of knowledge in their field. When attending our offices, they are always warm, friendly and hospitable. It's so comforting to use such a company who are personable in their approach to business, coupled with the professionalism and awareness of the importance of what they do. We pay a fraction of the price for a service we now (I feel), is of higher quality - especially with regards to customer service. I have and will continue to recommend their services."

Grant Smith
Ralph Lauren

"I want to thank you for the exemplary manner in which you both conduct yourselves when at any of the Ralph Lauren stores. It's refreshing to still find a company in London which is fair, who are honest & conscientious, & always have a pleasant demur. I appreciate how you keep the flow of work progressing, knowing that you will endeavour to meet our needs, even when you are not directly involved, by being available at all times, responding promptly to our calls. I would highly recommend your services to anyone looking for fire safety."

Mary Green
Manor Hotel

"We have been working with 911 Fire Services for several years now and can not recommend them enough. They are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. All work undertaken is carried out to an extremely high standard. They are great communicators; always keep you informed of order progress, delivery schedules and installation dates. All works carried out have always been completed on time and within budget. If you need fire protection you need 911 Fire Services!"

Natalie Baldwin
Greenhill & Co

"Upon first meeting with Ian and Steve from 911 Fire Services, I instantly felt that they could be trusted - originating from fire-fighting backgrounds, they not only knew the industry inside-out, but also cared that procedures and tests were completed accurately, because the work clearly has a personal importance to them. This is the difference I found between the 911 team and other technicians working on similar services. They are such a friendly team and always complete the work with professionalism, discretion and a smile! I can't recommend their services highly enough."
