Haringey’s grand period villas and its busy rental east both need modern fire detection — interlinked mains alarms for large multi-storey homes, and compliant landlord systems for the rental stock. GFL Electrical install and upgrade fire and smoke alarms across the borough.
The rules, briefly
- A smoke alarm on every storey of a home; CO alarms where there’s a fixed combustion appliance.
- New installs/rewires should be interlinked, mains-powered (BS 5839-6).
- HMOs require a higher standard.
See our smoke alarm regulations guide.
Fire detection across two halves of Haringey
- Crouch End, Muswell Hill (N8/N10): large, multi-storey period villas where interlinking is essential — and where radio-interlink protects original features from cable chasing.
- Tottenham, Wood Green (N15/N17/N22): rentals, conversions, and HMOs needing landlord smoke + CO compliance and, for HMOs, graded detection — see our HMO guidance.
What we provide
- Interlinked mains smoke and heat alarms (hard-wired or radio-interlink)
- CO alarms where combustion appliances are present
- HMO-grade detection where required
- Full certification and BS 5839-6 compliance

Common questions about fire alarms in Haringey
My Muswell Hill villa is large and over several floors — best approach? A fully interlinked system so any alarm sounds throughout — radio-interlink keeps it discreet in a period home.
I let a Tottenham flat — what’s required? Working alarms per storey, CO alarms where there’s a combustion appliance, working each tenancy; HMOs need more.
Battery or mains? Interlinked mains (with battery backup) is the standard for upgrades and far safer.
