West Wiltshire's county town
Fire & Security Engineers in Trowbridge
County offices, industrial units and independent retail — Trowbridge and west Wiltshire sit comfortably within our regular round.
Trowbridge is the county town and carries the administrative buildings that go with it, alongside a solid base of manufacturing, distribution and independent retail. White Horse Business Park on the eastern edge is where most of the commercial enquiries we get originate.
The surrounding towns matter just as much: Westbury, Melksham, Bradford-on-Avon, Warminster and Corsham are all within fifteen or twenty minutes, and many of our west Wiltshire customers have premises in two or three of them.
Because Bath is only twenty minutes away, this area effectively sits on our Bath round — which makes response times better than customers usually expect from a Bristol-based firm.
About 50 minutes from Bristol via Bath, and covered on our Bath and Wiltshire round.
Business parks and areas we work in around Trowbridge
Different sites bring different problems. Here is what we typically deal with in each part of the area.
White Horse Business Park
Trowbridge's main commercial estate — offices, distribution and trade units. Addressable fire alarms, monitored intruder alarms and IP CCTV are the standard package here.
Bumpers Farm, Chippenham
Fifteen minutes north, a large industrial estate we cover on the same visit — workshops, warehousing and trade counters.
West Wilts Trading Estate, Westbury
Manufacturing and storage units where high-bay detection and perimeter CCTV are usually the priorities.
Multi-site customers across west Wiltshire
Several of our Wiltshire customers run two or three small premises — a workshop in Westbury, an office in Trowbridge, a shop in Bradford-on-Avon. Putting them on one maintenance agreement with a shared service schedule and a single point of contact cuts cost and stops one site quietly falling out of compliance.
Older buildings, newer standards
A lot of stock here is converted mill and Victorian commercial property. Wireless fire detection, sensible surface containment and radio intruder devices let us bring those buildings up to current standards without wrecking them or shutting the business for a week.

Trowbridge — frequently asked questions
Do you cover Westbury, Melksham and Bradford-on-Avon?
Yes, along with Warminster, Corsham, Devizes and Chippenham. They all sit on the same west Wiltshire round.
Can several sites go on one maintenance contract?
They can, and it usually works out cheaper. One agreement, one schedule, one contact, and every site's certification kept together.
Do you provide temporary security for construction sites?
Yes — temporary alarms, site CCTV and wireless fire alarm units for construction and refurbishment projects in the area.
How disruptive is a fire alarm installation?
Less than most people expect. Wireless systems typically go in over one or two days, and we phase cabled work around your trading hours where we can.
