What is BAFE?
Following the tragic fire at Grenfell Tower, questions have been raised about the safety of high-rise buildings and whether “Stay Put Policies” are enough. The Building Regulations currently offer no alternative plan should these policies fail and residents become trapped. But what if there was a solution that could potentially save lives? A retrofitted fire alarm or evacuation system using wireless technology could be the answer. With minimal disruption to residents and building operations, such a system would provide an early warning to the Fire and Rescue Service and allow for swift evacuation should compartmentation fail.
