I have used Chris Lewis for a number of different fire, security and lighting automation projects and their service has always been first class.
Highly recommended!
James Irvine
Chris Lewis took over our fire and security following 4 years with another provider. They really offered value for money, picking up on a multitude of failings by our earlier provider… Cannot fault the experience.

FAQs
What fire and security systems do retail stores typically need?
It depends on your store size, layout and stock value. Most retail environments need: fire alarms with zones for shop floor and stockrooms, CCTV covering sales areas and cash handling, access control for staff-only areas, and intruder alarms for after-hours protection. High-value stock areas often need additional monitoring. We assess your specific setup and recommend what makes sense for your situation.
How do you minimise disruption during install?
We schedule installs around your trading hours, often working evenings or early mornings for minimal impact. Our experienced engineers work efficiently and clean up thoroughly. For larger projects, we phase the work to avoid disrupting your entire store at once. Systems are tested outside peak hours.
Can your systems work across multiple store locations?
Yes. Our cloud-based systems let you manage multiple stores from one platform. View CCTV from any location remotely. Manage staff access permissions across all sites centrally. Monitor fire and security systems for your entire estate. Perfect for retailers operating across several locations who want centralised oversight without managing each store separately.
