Fire Detection

We design and install fire protection systems for residential, commercial, and industrial applications based on a detailed fire risk assessment. Our systems comply with current fire regulations and legislation, and we offer scheduled testing, servicing, and maintenance services.

Our systems are tailored to the category and type of alarm system required for your premises and combine carbon monoxide, ionisation, optical smoke, flame and heat detectors, and rate of rise or fixed temperature sensors. For larger buildings, we can also supply beam smoke detectors.

Sprinkler Systems

Correctly installed fire suppression or sprinkler systems are vital safety measures that can save lives, protect property, and mitigate damage in an emergency. Maintaining an up-to-date system is also an important factor in minimising insurance costs.

Our certified engineers can design, supply and install wet pipe, dry pipe, deluge, and pre-action systems, using third-party tested and approved hardware and components. We have experience in both domestic and commercial implementations, including high-volume and specialist industrial systems.

CCTV

CCTV and video surveillance systems are vital to any building or site’s security. In addition to intrusion detection and recording criminal activity, they can play an important role in detecting emergency situations, monitoring crowd flow and behaviour, and providing footfall analysis.

JLM offers a comprehensive video security service that combines system design, equipment supply, installation, testing, and maintenance. Our systems incorporate fixed, PTZ, and specialist cameras, such as thermal imaging or IR, offsite or cloud-based video storage, and advanced management and analysis platforms.

Intruder Alarms

Commercial intruder detection and alarm systems are valuable tools for businesses—not only to protect their property and prevent loss but also to meet insurance, supply chain, and regulatory obligations and ensure employee and customer safety in and around the premises.

We’ll design, install, and configure an intruder detection system tailored to the specific characteristics of your property, including motion and shock detectors, keypads, panic buttons, smokescreens and deterrent signage — all seamlessly integrated with CCTV/video surveillance and access control systems.

Access Control

Implementing smart access control systems can reduce management, administration and manned security costs while offering greater flexibility to residents, employees, contractors or visitors — and as well as crime and loss prevention, smart access systems can reduce insurance premiums.

JLM provides fully-customised access solutions which can incorporate smartcards, mobile phone apps or keyfob entry, biometrics including fingerprint or face detection, as well as zonal and time-based controls, all managed from a centralised web portal which can be accessed remotely.

Automated Gates

Implementing automated gates to restrict access to your property gives greater flexibility and incurs lower costs than relying solely on manned security checkpoints or key sharing. Automated security gates allow 24/7 access while controlling the inward and outward movement of people or vehicles.

We provide custom-designed automatic gating solutions, tailored to the exact requirements of your business. Options include swing or sliding vehicle gates as well as pedestrian-only options, with additional features including alarms or beacons, force testing, integrated access control systems and anti-climbing measures.

AOV/Smoke Vents & Clearing

Automatic opening vent (AOV) control systems are used in the event of a fire to control the ventilation of smoke and clear internal spaces more effectively, reducing the risk of harm to people or property. AOV systems are required in many new builds and may also be retrofitted to existing premises.

We provide fully integrated AOV systems, including detectors, triggers, call points, and actuators, in single or multi-zone configurations, depending on the property’s exact characteristics and requirements. We also provide extensive testing and ongoing maintenance.

Nurse Call/Disability Alarms

Disability or nurse call alarms offer greater personal security for disabled or vulnerable people using commercial or residential facilities, allowing easy access to summon assistance if required — either via fixed-button or cord-pull alarms or wearable call buttons or wrist monitors.

We’ll work with you to design the best system for your unique circumstances, taking into account the risk profile of residents or visitors to your premises. We can integrate alarm systems with call centres or security offices to provide fast-response cover, and we provide full testing and maintenance of the systems.
