Following the accreditation, the team of specialist consultants are now accredited verifiers through the BAFE scheme, alongside their existing memberships with the likes of the Institute of Fire Engineers and the Institute of Fire Safety Managers. 

Bill McDonagh, Chairman, LFS, said, “We at LFS are constantly striving to ensure the best service and standards for our clients in everything we provide, so this accreditation is a significant step forward for us.  Working with our clients, we are acutely aware of the need for them to ensure they can show due diligence when appointing any contractors in relation to fire safety works therefore, it was vital we put in the necessary hard work and investment to achieve this outcome.

“We launched Linear Fire Safety in response to the growing importance of, and demand for, specialist solutions in this crucial area of building development, management, maintenance and safety and continue to build our presence and reputation as a leader in this specialist field.”

The LFS approach is built on the fundamental principle that fire safety must be integral to each and every building, from design and construction through to long term management. The ethos at the heart of LFS is to ensure the optimal, and most effective strategy is identified and adopted, in line with the life stage of the building. 

BAFE is the independent registration body for third-party certificated fire safety organisations across the UK. They offer a comprehensive record of third-party certificated accredited organisations that business owners, property managers, facility managers and specifiers can use with confidence.
