BS5839:1 2025 Is Here; Compliance in Fire Safety Standards – How e20 Helps You Stay Compliant and Confident

Enhancing Fire Safety Compliance: Discover how eighty20 Risk Systems can help you stay protected and confident with the new BS5839:1 2025 standards.

From 29th April 2025, the updated BS5839:1 2025 standard comes into force — and unlike previous updates, there’s no grace period. Immediate compliance is essential.

At Eighty20 Risk Systems, we’re committed to ensuring you’re ready from Day 1. If you’re using the e20 platform, adapting to the changes is not only achievable — it’s simple, seamless, and smart.

Here’s how e20 supports you:

Fire Safety Standard

New rules such as adjusting the time on control panels during every maintenance visit and verifying the zone chart each time can be easily managed through e20’s intuitive scheduling and digital checklist features.

You’ll benefit from automated reminders for service intervals — now flexibly managed between five and seven months — helping you maintain compliance without the risk of overdue inspections.

Streamlined Record-Keeping

Recording all ‘variations’ from BS5839 is now mandatory. With e20, every detail is digitally captured and stored in real-time against your fire systems asset register. Need to show proof of compliance during an audit? e20 delivers instant, audit-ready reports at the touch of a button.

Smarter Compliant Asset Management

From removing redundant systems to ensuring all interfaces are accessible for servicing, e20 provides clear asset tracking and task allocation to ensure nothing is missed.

You can also record important installation changes — such as fitting red mains cables and adding lift shaft detectors — ensuring full visibility across your estate and ensuring adherence to fire safety standards.

Future-Proof Fire Certification

All certification must now align with new paragraph numbering. e20’s dynamic form builder means your certificates, inspection reports and logbooks can be updated quickly and professionally — ensuring absolute consistency with the new standard.

Training and Development Tracking

With continual professional development (CPD) now required for competent persons, e20 helps you manage training records, CPD updates and renewal alerts centrally — giving you confidence that your workforce meets competency standards.

Why It Matters

Meeting the new BS5839:1 2025 standard isn’t just about compliance — it’s about protecting your people, your business, and your reputation.

Using e20 significantly reduces administrative overheads, improves service quality, and supports continuous ISO accreditation through demonstrable compliance and robust digital audit trails.

In short, e20 helps you turn regulatory change into an opportunity for better, smarter operations.
