Overview
Your fire and security company in Fulbourn
Fulbourn sits a few miles south-east of Cambridge, and its mix of older village-centre buildings, newer developments and commercial sites such as Capital Park means no two premises have quite the same fire and security needs. BDi Advance designs, installs, services and maintains commercial fire alarms, CCTV, intruder alarms and access control for businesses and organisations in the village and along the Fulbourn Road side of Cambridge.
We are a Cambridgeshire business with local engineers, and we look after Fulbourn alongside our wider fire and security services in Cambridge, for everyone from small local businesses to blue-chip organisations in the pharmaceutical, healthcare and technology sectors.
- Local engineers based in Huntingdon, covering Cambridgeshire and East Anglia
- SSAIB certified for CCTV, intruder alarms and access control
- A member of the Fire Industry Association (FIA) for fire alarm work
- 24-hour manned service line and 24-hour emergency call-out, 365 days a year
- We service and take over systems installed by other companies
- One supplier for security and fire rather than two to chase

Security and fire
Security systems in Fulbourn
Our security work in Fulbourn is tailored to each property, whether it is a retail unit, an office or an industrial building. We install intruder alarms, CCTV, access control and door entry, and we can link them so an alarm activation is recorded on camera and doors are managed from one platform.
Older buildings in the village centre and newer business units raise different questions about cabling routes, camera positions and entrances, so we survey first and design around how the site is used, what needs protecting and any insurer requirements.

Fire safety for Fulbourn premises
Fire protection is essential for every business, landlord and managing agent in Fulbourn. We install, service and repair fire alarms and extinguishers with our own engineers, and arrange the rest of your fire safety through our sister companies, giving Fulbourn premises a single point of contact.

Commercial fire alarm design, installation, servicing and repairs, and fire extinguisher supply, installation and maintenance. BDi Advance is a member of the Fire Industry Association (FIA). Commercial fire alarms
Fire risk assessments, fire doors and fire stopping

Fire and security from one team. One maintenance arrangement can cover the fire alarm, CCTV, intruder alarm and access control at your Fulbourn premises.
Servicing and maintenance in Fulbourn
Once a system is in, it needs looking after. Fulbourn premises can have CCTV, intruder alarms, access control, fire alarms and fire extinguishers serviced, maintained and repaired by us, including systems another company put in.
24-hour support
Our manned service line runs 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, with a 24-hour emergency technician call-out and remote support and diagnostics where the equipment allows.
Takeovers and upgrades
If a Fulbourn system is outdated, unreliable or no longer suits how the building is used, we inspect it and advise whether repair, upgrade or replacement is the most practical option.
Our maintenance contracts include a full check twice a year as standard. More about maintenance
Site and perimeter security
ANPR, barriers and perimeter protection
Business parks, campuses and larger sites between Fulbourn and Cambridge can also have vehicle control and boundary protection from us, installed and maintained alongside CCTV and access control.
Linked to your other systems, a number plate read, a barrier or a perimeter alarm in Fulbourn feeds a single view of the whole site.
ANPR cameras
Vehicle recognition
Automatic number plate recognition, including TagMaster ANPR cameras, for car parks, gatehouses and vehicle access control.
Barriers and turnstiles
Controlled entry
Automatic barriers, bollards, road blockers and turnstiles to manage vehicle and pedestrian entry to your site.
Perimeter protection
The site boundary
Perimeter intrusion detection and fence alarms that detect intruders at the boundary, before they reach the building.
How we work
From site visit to ongoing support
Quotations start with a free site visit. In Fulbourn we look round the building before quoting, then design fire and security systems around how it is used, what needs protecting, the site and the budget.
