For over twenty-five years, Churches Fire & Security has provided services to over 30,000 sites countrywide, enabling UK businesses to better protect their staff, visitors and assets by reducing the risk of fire through long-term partnerships. Churches Fire & Security supplies a large portion of the market space covering not only large and well-known corporates but also smaller, local businesses and offer a full in-house capability of products including fire alarms, fire extinguishers, sprinkler systems, emergency lighting and suppression systems.

Fire Safety Services will be Churches Fire & Security’s 20th acquisition and supports their strategy to become one of the largest providers in the UK. This follows from Horizon Capital’s recent investment in Churches Fire & Security to support their expansion through a buy and build strategy. Churches Fire & Security and Fire Safety Services offer well-aligned services with a large concentration of regional customers and together, are extremely proud to be able to offer a better national service as a result of the merge.
