Triple Star Fire and Security

What Triple Star Fire and Security does

Triple Star Fire and Security Limited is a privately held UK fire and security systems installer and maintainer founded in 2006 and headquartered in Orpington, Kent. The company designs, supplies, installs, and commissions fire detection and alarm systems (addressable, conventional, VESDA early smoke detection, wireless), fire extinguishers, evacuation and emergency lighting, plus security systems including CCTV, intruder alarms, and access control. It also delivers lockdown alert systems for schools and commercial sites, and offers waking-watch replacement services via the government-funded IMAF route. Operations are concentrated across the South East of England, London, and the Home Counties, served through consultative field sales with free site assessments and quote-based pricing.

The technical proposition rests on tier-one OEM authorisations rather than proprietary platforms: NOTIFIER by Honeywell addressable panels with CLSS cloud connectivity (Honeywell INSPIRE E10/E15, Self-Test detectors, EN54-2/4 certified), Hyfire Taurus EN54-25 wireless fire systems, IDIS NDAA-compliant CCTV with Edge AI Plus deep learning analytics (crowd, fall, violence, intrusion detection), and Paxton Platinum access control. Each maintenance contract bundles a Tio BS5839-1-compliant digital logbook and an Uptick customer compliance portal, producing a recurring software layer on top of installation revenue. The firm holds an unusually deep accreditation stack (BAFE SP203-1, SSAIB, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, CHAS Elite, FSQS, ICO, ECA, Gate Safe, ADIA), is registered on the Homes England IMAF installer panel for government-funded retrofit work, and is led by Managing Director Daren Pool who sits on the BSI standards committee.

Revenue is generated through professional services (design, installation, commissioning, six-monthly BS 5839-1 maintenance), supplemented by a subscription-style finance arrangement with Bluestar Leasing and recurring digital compliance tools. Customer mix spans commercial property, education, healthcare (including Mental Health Act secure care), heritage, transport/logistics, leisure, and local government across roughly 11–50 employees, with no disclosed revenue or external funding. The go-to-market is exclusively enterprise field sales; there is no online self-service or retail channel.
