SSAIB Certification: Trusted Fire and Security Protection for Your Business
When it comes to safeguarding your business against the risk of crime or fire, cutting corners is not an option. Choosing a fire or security provider with SSAIB certification ensures your premises, assets, and people are protected to the highest possible standards.
At MES Systems, we are proud to be an SSAIB-certified installer, giving our customers confidence, compliance, and peace of mind when investing in security or fire protection systems.
Why Choose an SSAIB-Certified Company?
SSAIB (Security Systems and Alarms Inspection Board) only certifies companies that demonstrate high levels of competence, professionalism, and ethical conduct in the design, installation and maintenance of fire and security systems. Increasingly, insurers require evidence that all reasonable steps have been taken to mitigate risk—choosing an SSAIB-certified provider helps meet or exceed those requirements.

What Type of Systems and Services Can You Expect?
Once you engage with an SSAIB installer like MES Systems, we carry out a tailored consultation to assess your individual site needs. We then recommend and install the most appropriate solutions, which may include:
SSAIB-Certified Installers Are Checked So You Don’t Have To
SSAIB regularly audits and assesses its certified companies, so you know you’re in safe hands. They inspect and confirm:
✔ Staff screening to British Standards
✔ Technical competence and management experience
✔ Appropriate business premises and insurance
✔ Compliance with British and European standards
✔ Identity verification and training
✔ Adequate staffing and resources
✔ Proper documentation and record keeping
Your Satisfaction
SSAIB’s remit as a Certification Body is to ensure that your interests are protected. This is achieved by allowing only those providers who meet their exacting standards of quality and performance to be certificated by SSAIB. Only certificated companies are allowed to use the SSAIB Certificated Installer mark.
However, if you are dissatisfied with the service you receive from a certificated company in terms of the system failing to comply with the agreed specification, with standards applicable to the system, or the work has not been carried out to an acceptable standard, SSAIB will investigate the complaint. If substantiated, SSAIB will require the installer to rectify the cause of the complaint.
