Student Accommodation Sector

How we work in the student accommodation sector

Purpose-built student accommodation presents a high sleeping risk and a transient, potentially fire-risk-unaware occupancy. Sprinkler systems, robust compartmentation, fast-response detection, and well-designed means of escape are essential design elements. For high-rise PBSA schemes above the higher-risk building threshold, Building Safety Act 2022 gateway requirements also apply.

We provide independent, conflict-free advice: we do not install or manufacture fire safety products, so our recommendations are driven entirely by what is right for your building and its occupants.
