A dedicated fire brand

Survey it. Evidence it. Fix it. Close it.

DefendX is the AOG fire-protection brand. It takes a building from identified fire-safety risk to evidenced close-out: survey, specification, installation, remediation and an auditable record, all under one accountable delivery line.

It still runs inside the AOG operating model. A main contractor or building owner can take fire protection on the same covenant, the same compliance ledger and the same weekly report as security, FM and construction support, with DefendX as the specialist line.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What fire protection services does DefendX provide?

DefendX covers fire safety across its life cycle: fire risk assessment, fire detection and alarm systems, emergency lighting and passive fire protection, plus the training and record keeping that sit around them. It is a single route to a defensible fire safety position rather than several disconnected suppliers.

Are your fire risk assessors and engineers competent and accredited?

Yes. Fire risk assessments are carried out by competent assessors, and servicing follows the relevant British Standards for each system. We work to third party certificated schemes where they apply, and every visit produces the certification and records you need to demonstrate compliance.

How does DefendX help us meet the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order?

We help the responsible person meet their duties by delivering a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment, acting on its findings and keeping the fire safety measures serviced and evidenced. You get a clear action plan with priorities, so you know what must be done, by when and why.

Can you service and maintain fire systems across multiple sites?

Yes. We plan servicing across a portfolio on one schedule with consolidated reporting, so fire detection, alarm systems and emergency lighting are all in date and evidenced in one place. It removes the risk of a single site slipping through the gaps between separate contractors.

Do you provide fire safety training for our staff?

We deliver fire awareness, extinguisher use and fire marshal training matched to your premises and risk. Trained staff and documented drills are part of the fire safety case, so the training records feed straight into the evidence you hold as the responsible person.
