Rapid Response Waking Watch for Fire Emergencies

Krypton FM Group places the most important priority on your premises safety and security with a particular focus on guarding high-rise buildings and residential complexes. Our professional Waking Watch Security Service implements security guards to protect residents and property via continuous fire hazard and safety risk monitoring. The security services are reachable across the entire UK territory where our skilled security team ensures public safety for building managers and property owners alongside occupants.

A Waking Watch requires people to be awake and check the property for any fire risks without stopping. Having this kind of service is important for high buildings or residential blocks where the fire detection systems are not fully functioning. If there is a fire, Waking Watch personnel make sure everyone is notified, assist with evacuating people and liaise with those working on the emergency. This step is required temporarily, while more permanent solutions are being set up such as adding alarm systems or getting rid of flammable panels.

At Krypton FM Group, we believe in clear communication and transparency with our clients. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how our Waking Watch service operates:

We begin by conducting a thorough site assessment to understand the unique requirements of your building. This involves evaluating the structure, layout, and fire safety features of the building. We also take into account any previous fire safety issues or regulations specific to your building.

Once the assessment is complete, we work with you to develop a tailored security plan. This plan outlines the number of security guards required, their duties, and the times of operation. We ensure that the plan is designed to meet the specific needs of your building, guaranteeing optimal fire safety coverage.

Our security guards are carefully selected and trained in fire safety and emergency response. They undergo regular training to stay updated on the latest fire safety protocols and best practices. This ensures they are fully equipped to handle any fire-related emergency that may arise.

Throughout the duration of our Waking Watch service, we provide ongoing monitoring and detailed reports to keep you informed of any safety concerns or incidents that may arise. These reports are designed to help you stay on top of potential risks and take proactive measures to address them.

When there are cladding issues, unmaintained alarms or ongoing construction, a ‘high-risk’ building benefits from Waking Watch because it further raises fire dangers. High-rise buildings, flats managed by housing associations, care homes and student housing usually need Waking Watch services. If you get an enforcement notice from the local council, a Waking Watch will probably be needed until the situation is fixed.

When you select Krypton FM Group, you get reliability, a long history and prioritization of safety. The members of our Waking Watch teams are prepared to protect people, more than just being fire wardens. We design the installation so it suits your building and we make sure it is compatible with your current safety systems. We handle everything from following regulations to reporting risks, covering all the needs of building managers, housing associations and landlords.

Training for Waking Watch officers covers all aspects of fire safety, how to respond to emergencies and measures for evacuating people. All staff members are trained and have extensive experience working in safety-related jobs. As a result, they are good at catching safety issues as soon as they see them and know how to react quickly and advise calmly in case of an emergency.

A fire can happen at any hour which is why we provide help any time of day or night. Since we have people walking our routes all the time, we’re ready to respond as soon as a fire is detected. Officers receive training to interact with emergency services which helps coordinate a rapid response that can prevent further harm and protect people.

No two buildings are the same which means they require different fire safety measures. So, we provide Waking Watch packages that are customized to fit your special situation. Fire safety experts will survey your property, search for risks and establish a unique protection plan that ensures your residents are safe and the plan does not bother them.

Our team is up to date with the latest UK fire safety rules and those issued by the National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC). Selecting Krypton FM Group guarantees you are both safer and in compliance with the law. We provide services that are suitable for local authorities and continuously change our services according to latest changes made by the government.
