Experts in Fire Safety, so you don’t have to be
Fire safety regulations in high-rise buildings are constantly evolving. In many cases, fire safety solutions still need to progress beyond a box ticking exercise to meet mandates – we need a mindset shift. From developers, contractors, and end users, correct and integrated Fire Safety Protocols should be at the forefront of Smart Building Safety.
At Johnson Controls, we're leading the way with fire solutions that take safety in high-rise residential buildings to new heights. From design through to installation, commissioning, service and maintenance, and support, our high-rise evacuation alert systems will deliver on your fire safety requirements. Johnson Controls can be the accredited, trusted partner for Evacuation Systems, Fire Detection, and Fire Suppression.
It means everyone can sleep easy, safe in the knowledge that a Johnson Controls protected building is a safer building.
Fire safety solutions are not always seen. But they are always invaluable.
Faster, smarter evacuation for high rise buildings
Johnson Controls' evacuation alert system allows the fire and rescue services to evacuate high-rise residential buildings in a fire emergency. The system provides the emergency services with a safe and orderly means of evacuating buildings should the 'stay put order' fail.
The new range incorporates a variety of evacuation alert panels, single and multi-way flat interface units, as well as self-testing evacuation alert sounders. Equality Act-compliant visual indicators and vibrating pillow pads also help to ensure an effective high-rise evacuation.

The Benefits of Our Evacuation Alert System
- The evacuation alert system can be installed into new buildings or can be retrofitted into existing buildings.
- Easy-to-use controls allow firefighters to manually operate evacuation alert devices inside individual flats on a zone by zone, or floor by floor basis.
- 110dB Sounders are positioned in every flat and will alert the occupant if the need to evacuate arises.
- Our supplied alert systems meet stringent EACIE conditions and are housed in a tamper proof enclosure according to STS 205 BR2. These housings only allow access to fire and rescue personnel using a special BS EN 1303 key.
- Our range of fully compliant products meet the highest standards BS8629:2019 and are installed by fully qualified BAFE SP207 engineers.
- Our evacuation alert system uses reliable, hard-wired technology to guarantee that evacuation alerts are received where and when they are needed.
- Multiple evacuation panels can be networked together to provide wider coverage for larger installations and reduced wiring costs.
- A wide range of flat interface units are available, including single-way and four-way (extendable to eight-way) models to accommodate new build and retro-fit installations.
- The system is fully compatible with dynamic cloud-based data management software. This can be utilised to provide duty holders with a verifiable audit trail of system activity and device testing.
- Our high rise emergency alert system is powered by CAST open protocol technology.

Self-Testing Sounders & Visual Alarm Devices
We offer a variety of high-rise evacuation alert devices including self-testing sounders, visual indicators and vibrating pads that all comply to the UK Equality Act.
The vibrating pad is a warning device typically placed under the resident's pillow to help make the hard of hearing aware if an evacuation alert occurs.
The self-testing sounders allow system tests to be carried out by service personnel without having to enter individual flats.
