Fire Safety Audit for Schools & Colleges in Pune

Hundreds of children, a few staircases and a few minutes to get everyone out. We audit your campus, fix the gaps and train staff and students to evacuate calmly.

Keeping students safe starts with clear exits

Educational buildings are a separate occupancy class under the Maharashtra Fire Prevention and Life Safety Measures Act, 2006, with fire safety requirements that depend on the building’s height. Beyond the rules, parents and managements want to know one thing: can every student get out quickly and safely?

Our audit looks at classrooms, corridors, staircases, science and computer labs, canteens and hostels. We check that exits are wide and unlocked, that alarms can be heard in every room, and that staff know their role in an evacuation. Where the building is covered by the Act, we also handle the twice-yearly Form B.

Who we work with

  • Schools and junior colleges
  • Degree and engineering colleges
  • Coaching classes in commercial buildings
  • Student hostels and PGs
  • Pre-schools and day-care centres

Frequently Asked Questions

Do schools need a fire audit in Maharashtra? +

Educational buildings are covered by the Maharashtra Fire Prevention and Life Safety Measures Act, 2006, with requirements based on height. Covered buildings must keep fire safety systems in working order and submit a maintenance certificate (Form B) from a Licensed Agency twice a year. An audit is the practical way to check you meet these requirements.

Can you conduct a mock drill with students? +

Yes. We plan age-appropriate drills with the management, brief teachers as floor wardens, time the evacuation and share a written drill report.

Can the audit be done on a holiday? +

Yes. Physical checks can be done on a holiday or after school hours. The drill, if included, is done on a working day by agreement.

Do you audit coaching classes in commercial buildings? +

Yes. We audit your premises and point out building-level issues (such as staircases and risers) that you need to take up with the building owner or society.
