From Hythe High Street to the Marsh

In Hythe we look after shops, cafés, surgeries and guest houses, and in the villages and farms of Romney Marsh we often work in older and more remote buildings. That’s where a wireless Ajax EN54 system earns its keep: no chasing old walls, and signalling over 4G where there’s no reliable phone line.

We already work across the Marsh. In New Romney, for example, we installed CCTV for a funeral directors after an attack of vandalism. Read the case study.

For most premises, callers must confirm a fire, or signs of fire, before crews are sent to an automatic fire alarm, day and night. Your fire procedure needs to say who checks and who calls 999.

Yes. We cover the whole of Romney Marsh, including New Romney, Dymchurch, St Mary’s Bay and Lydd.

Our building has no phone line. Can the fire alarm still be monitored?

Often, yes. The Ajax EN54 Fire Hub can report to an alarm receiving centre over 4G with dual SIM cards, as well as over Ethernet or Wi-Fi. We check the signal at the survey.

Can you fit a fire alarm in a listed church or village hall?

Yes. Wireless devices avoid long cable runs and most fixings, which suits historic buildings. We agree device positions with you before we start.
