Properties in South West Dublin and what that means for fire safety
1930s–1950s semi-detached homes in Terenure, Kimmage, Walkinstown and parts of Rathfarnham, big 1970s–1980s estates in Tallaght, Firhouse and Knocklyon, and newer apartments around Citywest.
1930s–1960s houses used as rentals typically need interlinked smoke alarms and a check of escape routes, especially where attics have been converted. 1970s–1990s homes and small commercial units usually need alarm upgrades and regular extinguisher and emergency lighting servicing. Newer apartment blocks have common-area fire alarm systems, emergency lighting and fire doors that the management company must keep serviced and recorded.
What to check before you book a fire safety provider
- Ask which Irish Standard the work follows (e.g. I.S. 3218 for fire alarms, I.S. 3217 for emergency lighting, I.S. 291 for extinguishers)
- Make sure you get a written report and a logbook entry for every visit
- Check the provider's insurance and competence for the system type
- Ask for defects to be listed in order of priority, with prices, before any repairs
- Keep all certificates together. Insurers, fire officers and buyers may ask for them
