Why Disabled Refuge Systems Are Required

In the UK, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the Equality Act 2010 require building owners to ensure safe evacuation for all occupants, including those with disabilities. Disabled Refuge Systems are a critical component of this requirement.

These systems provide:

A designated safe area for disabled persons during evacuation
Two-way communication with building management
Peace of mind for building operators and occupants
Legal compliance with building regulations
