Fire Protection SWMS
Fire services, sprinkler systems, fire door installation, and detection
Fire Protection Complete Pack
8 documents — everything you need for fire protection compliance.
Fire protection installation involves working at heights to install sprinkler systems and detection equipment, working in confined ceiling spaces, and handling pressurised piping systems — all requiring documented SWMS under WHS Regulations.
Our fire protection SWMS pack covers 8 activities including fire sprinkler installation, fire door fitting, smoke detection and alarm systems, fire hydrant and hose reel installation, fire damper installation, and passive fire protection (fire stopping). Documents address hazards such as falls from height, working in confined ceiling spaces, pressurised pipe testing, electrical work for detection systems, and hot work for pipe joining.
Key Hazards Covered
- Falls from height during sprinkler installation
- Working in confined ceiling and riser spaces
- Pressurised pipe testing and burst risk
- Electrical hazards during detection system wiring

Fire Protection SWMS — Common Questions
Do fire protection installers need SWMS?
Yes. Fire protection work typically involves working at heights (installing sprinklers and detectors at ceiling level), working in confined spaces (risers, ceiling cavities), and electrical work — all high-risk activities under WHS Regulations s.291.
What fire protection systems are covered?
Our pack covers fire sprinkler systems (AS 2118), fire detection and alarms (AS 1670), fire doors (AS 1905), hydrants and hose reels (AS 2419), fire dampers, and passive fire protection — each with system-specific hazard controls.
Is electrical work for fire systems included?
Yes. Our detection and alarm SWMS covers low-voltage wiring, cable installation in ceiling spaces, electrical isolation procedures, and commissioning — addressing both electrical and working-at-height hazards.
