Dry Risers

Dry risers are vital to ensuring an efficient and reliable water supply for firefighting operations in multi-story or expansive buildings. Comprising vertical pipework installed within a structure, they remain empty (or “dry”) under normal conditions and are charged with water by the fire brigade upon arrival. This rapid access to water at designated inlet and outlet points significantly reduces the time needed to combat a blaze, ultimately protecting occupants, property, and first responders alike.

Our expert and experienced team will ensure you system adheres to BS 9990, guaranteeing compliance, reliability, and seamless integration with other safety systems.

Every dry riser installation is designed and installed to meet the unique requirements of your building, whether it’s a high-rise residence or a commercial premises.

Our approach emphasises simplicity in excellence, balancing technical precision with cost-effective processes and minimal disruption to ongoing operations.

To ensure transparent, accountable progress from start to finish, we align every stage of a dry riser project with the Gateway process. Through well-defined checkpoints, covering initial planning, design validation, installation milestones, and final commissioning, we keep stakeholders informed and ensure each phase meets both regulatory and performance benchmarks. This structured methodology helps manage risk, fosters collaborative decision-making, and ultimately delivers a robust, compliant dry riser system that stands ready when it’s needed most.
