Design and Technical Services

Getting the specification right is the best way to avoid costly mistakes later. S.E.A Ltd helps housing associations, care providers, contractors and consultants design and specify safety systems that suit the building, the residents and the budget.

We are manufacturer-independent, so our designs are based on what your project needs, not on a preferred supplier.

  • Independent, manufacturer-neutral specifications

  • Site surveys and written recommendations

  • Support for tenders, new builds and refurbishments

  • ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 accredited

What we offer

  • Site surveys. We assess existing systems, cabling, connectivity and building layout.

  • Audits and assessments. Including our free PSTN audit for warden call and free nurse call assessment.

  • System design. Layouts, call point and camera positions, and zoning that suit how the building is used.

  • Specifications. Clear, manufacturer-neutral specifications ready for procurement.
