From fire risk assessments to ongoing compliance support, we cover everything a warehouse needs to stay safe and on the right side of the law. Here is how we can help.
We act as your competent person, giving you the guidance, documentation and confidence to meet your duties. We help you build a practical safety management system, keep on top of your obligations and respond quickly when issues arise. It is like having an experienced safety manager on call.
Warehouses present specific fire challenges: high storage, fire loading, racking layouts and large open spaces. Our fire risk assessments are detailed and warehouse-specific, giving you a clear view of the risks and the practical steps to control them. We help you protect your people, your stock and your premises and meet your duties under fire safety law. Our fire risk assessment service is BAFE SP205 third-party certified, so every assessment is independently quality assured and validated before it is issued.
AL23 Safety is a BAFE Registered Organisation, independently third-party certificated by SSAIB to the BAFE SP205 Life Safety Fire Risk Assessment Scheme. It is independent proof that our assessors, management systems and quality assurance meet a recognised national standard.
Our competence framework, reporting and quality assurance are aligned with BS 8674 and the BAFE SP205 Scheme. Every assessment is thorough, proportionate and completed by competent fire risk assessors.
If your site stores or handles flammable or explosive substances, DSEAR places clear duties on you. We assess your processes and substances, identify hazardous areas and give you a practical plan to control the risk of fire and explosion.
Damaged racking is one of the most common and most dangerous hazards in any warehouse. Our independent inspections identify damage, overloading and installation issues before they lead to a collapse and give you a clear record of what needs to be put right.
A thorough audit shows you exactly where you stand. We review your site, systems and documentation against current requirements, then give you a prioritised report so you know what to tackle first.
For sites that fall under the Control of Major Accident Hazards Regulations, the stakes and the paperwork are high. We provide specialist support to help you meet your obligations and demonstrate control of major accident hazards.
Generic templates do not protect anyone. We write clear, site-specific risk assessments and method statements that reflect how your work is really done so your teams can follow them and your records stand up to scrutiny.
Manual handling injuries are common in warehousing and largely preventable. We assess the tasks that carry the most risk and provide practical training and controls to reduce injuries and lost time.
A fire door only works if it is properly fitted and maintained. We inspect your fire doors, identify defects and give you a clear record of their condition and what needs attention.
We deliver practical, warehouse-focused training that your teams will actually remember and use. From manual handling to fire awareness, we tailor sessions to your site and your risks.
Compliance is not a one-off. With ongoing support, you get a safety partner who keeps your assessments current, flags what is coming up and is on hand when you need answers. Nothing slips through the cracks.
