Rectifying Common Property Inadequacies for Commercial Building Fire Safety Compliance 

Some of the commonly found inadequacies in commercial building fire safety compliance across NSW must be rectified to satisfy the following fire safety compliance requirements:

• Fire detectors and fire extinguishers in good working condition
• Fire alarm systems with good operation
• Fully operational emergency lighting and exit signs
• Fire sprinklers in good working condition
• Smoothly operating fire hose reels
• Regulation fire doors without gaps between doors and door frames

In addition, every commercial building must have regularly scheduled fire equipment maintenance audits to ensure good operation of all equipment. After your property inspection by your fire safety practitioner-consultant, he or she will evaluate all aspects of your building’s fire prevention measures, mechanisms and devices.

If your property is found to be deficient in meeting fire safety requirements for commercial buildings in NSW, your consultant will notify you of any updates, repairs or replacements of equipment and methods necessary to ensure fire safety compliance for your property. Your consultant can also recommend reputable companies for making updates, repairs or new installations of equipment as needed.

As the owner of your commercial property, you will receive both an interim and final Annual Fire Safety Statement (AFSS) as well as a Fire Safety Certificate (FSC) once all required work is completed for your building and your property receives approval as fire safety compliant in NSW. Your AFSS and FSC should both be displayed in a prominent place in a public area of your building.
