Fire Safety at Aston - Evacuation Procedures
The fire alarm system has been upgraded. In an attempt to reduce the confusion of the two stage fire alarm system, the new alarms recently installed are now voice enhanced. Please watch the short video to familiarise yourself with the new sounds. In addition, should the fire activation be in your immediate risk area the system will bypass the 3 minute alert (stage one) and revert straight into (stage two) full evacuation which must be undertaken immediately.
