Premises Information BoxThe need for fire commanders to have access to relevant, up to date and practical information about fire safety systems in the affected building in the event of a fire is of huge importance. The Premises Information Box has been developed to make sure that such information is immediately available on site. "We expect the Premises Information Box to become a useful tool for fire fighters, enabling them to attack a fire with more knowledge about the building. This will help them to reduce risks to the occupants, to themselves and mitigate damage to property." Group Commander, Fire Engineering Group
The boxes can only be unlocked by fire brigade personnel or by designated key holders. These secure boxes, positioned on an outside wall, by the fire control panel or in the lobby can be used by the brigade as they arrive, enabling them to make well informed decisions ensuring the safety of their crew.
