A Company Well Connected
As part of their growth, Shortbread House Edinburgh acquired a new premises in Leith and required a complete fire and security solution to protect their site. HF’s Fire & Security team was engaged to deliver a full installation.
Our engineers installed Intelligent Fire Alarm System with individually marked detection points for precise monitoring and an Intruder Alarm System, upgraded and networked with the existing system. We also fitted CCTV coverage across the new premises.
Given the critical nature of fire safety in a food production environment, ensuring full reliability and compliance was paramount. HF’s team successfully integrated both systems, completing testing and commissioning without issue.
As part of their growth plans, Shortbread House Edinburgh had recently acquired a new premises beside their existing factory unit in Leith. With the new premises, they had a need to secure and protect the site and turned to HF and our Fire & Security division to complete the work.
We carried out the installation of a new Intelligent Fire Alarm System, Intruder Alarm System as well as CCTV for the new premises. As part of the installation, the new fire alarm system allows the customer to individually mark each fire detection point for a more accurate detection system.
These new premises that Shortbread House were moving into had an existing fire & security system that a previous occupier had installed. We were able to network this system and upgraded the intruder alarm to tie in with the newly installed system that we had fitted while also networking the existing fire alarm install.
Project Challenges: The main challenge that our installation team had to overcome was connecting the existing fire alarm system that was already fitted in the premises to the newly installed system that our Fire & Security team had been contracted to install. Fire Alarm Systems are a life saving necessity, especially in a facility like this so it was of the utmost importance that the new system was correctly installed and working reliably connected to existing devices that were already fitted.

Our Fire and Security Services are NSI Gold and NSI Fire Gold accredited and we can design, install and offer maintenance contracts for Fire Systems, Access Control Systems, CCTV and Intruder Alarms nationwide.
