Built for the fire alarm installation and maintenance market
Fire alarm engineering has specific demands that generic job management tools don't handle — BS 5839 commissioning certificates, weekly and quarterly test records, BAFE documentation, FRA report storage, recurring annual service contracts and multi-site facilities management clients. Trade2Base handles all of it from one platform designed for BAFE-approved fire protection businesses.

What fire alarm businesses say
“We install and maintain fire alarm systems across the South East. Trade2Base attribution showed Google Ads generating commercial site surveys at £44 per booking — versus £280 from Checkatrade. We tripled our Google budget and our pipeline went from 8 to 22 live sites.”
“The BS 5839 compliance document storage has transformed how we manage our client base. Every commissioning certificate, weekly test record and inspection report is linked to the site — FRA audits take minutes now instead of half a day.”
“We service 120 commercial sites across Yorkshire. The customer portal is essential — facilities managers can see service history, access certificates and renew contracts online. It's elevated our client relationships completely.”
