Active Fire

Fieldway was appointed by Wirral Borough Council in June 2021 to replace the existing fire alarm system at Lingham Primary School.

The installation included a Grade A L2 system with an Advanced MX Pro 5 panel and Apollo detection throughout the school. The new panel provides up to 38 hours of battery life during a power failure. A dedicated project manager coordinated the programme, supported by four experienced engineers. Weekly site meetings tracked progress against agreed milestones, enabling all works to be completed ahead of the new school term.

The programme was delivered during the summer holidays to minimise disruption to pupils, teachers and school operations.

Care and Communication

Careful holiday planning ensured works were completed before pupils returned to school.

A detailed programme established milestones and delivery requirements from mobilisation. Weekly site meetings tracked progress, while experienced engineers ensured the installation remained on programme and met the required specification.

Challenges and Solutions

The fire alarm replacement had to be completed within a fixed school holiday programme.
