Benefits of Fire Alarm Installation in Glasgow
Discover how our expertly installed alarm systems provide essential protection, legal compliance and total peace of mind.
Early Detection Saves Lives
Fires can occur without warning. A working smoke alarm offers early warning, giving your household valuable time for evacuation and minimising personal and financial loss. From smouldering cigarettes in bins to an unattended pan, smoke detectors and heat alarms are crucial for identifying danger early.
Reliable Safety & Legal Compliance
Scotland’s updated fire safety legislation requires all homes to have interlinked smoke alarms. This means if one alarm goes off, they all sound. This provides full-house awareness during a fire. The law also mandates heat alarms in kitchens and carbon monoxide detectors near any carbon-fuelled appliances, such as boilers and wood-burning stoves.
Our qualified electricians ensure that every alarm installation meets Scottish fire safety regulations. We only install mains wired alarms or tamper-proof, long-life battery options – no shortcuts or guesswork.
Advanced Technology for Modern Living
We offer smart fire alarm systems that connect wirelessly, making installation quick and disruption-free. These interlinked alarms provide superior coverage compared to standalone models, with some models offering mobile notifications for added convenience. Key features include:
- Wireless battery-powered systems
- Optional smart features and app integration
- Full compliance with new Scottish regulation
Whether you need a basic smoke alarm system or a fully integrated fire detection system, PWS Electrical provides scalable options tailored to your specific needs.

Our Range of Fire Alarms
Every property has unique safety needs. Here’s how our range of interlinked fire alarms can help protect your home from various types of fire and gas threats.
Smoke Alarms
Our home smoke alarms are designed to detect visible and invisible smoke particles quickly. We install optical and heat types to suit various room types and risks.
Optical alarms: Ideal for living rooms, bedrooms and near the kitchen and reducing false alarms
Interlinked for all alarms to sound and alert occupants
Heat Alarms
Unlike smoke alarms, heat alarms activate based on rapid temperature rise, not smoke. They’re perfect for kitchens and garages where regular smoke might cause false alarms.
We install interlinked alarms to ensure seamless communication during emergencies.
Carbon Monoxide Alarms
Carbon monoxide is a silent, odourless killer. We install CO monoxide detectors near every carbon-fuelled appliance in your home. This ensures you have adequate protection as required by Scottish legislation.
Our carbon monoxide detectors alert you to dangerous gas levels before they reach life-threatening concentrations.
