disabled refuge
A reliable fire alarm system is the cornerstone of life safety in any building. At Rokalite Fire & Security, we design and install fully compliant fire detection and alarm solutions tailored to your environment. From advanced smoke and heat detection to voice evacuation and remote monitoring, our systems are engineered to provide early warning and rapid response—protecting lives, property, and ensuring full regulatory compliance.
Refuge Intercom Systems
Refuge intercoms are the most common solution for emergency communication. Installed in designated safe refuge points, they allow individuals who require assistance to communicate directly with building staff or fire wardens. Clear, reliable two-way communication ensures that those awaiting help are kept informed and reassured until they can be safely evacuated.
Emergency Voice Communication (EVC) Systems
EVC systems are a comprehensive option for larger or more complex buildings, such as hospitals, stadiums, or high-rise offices. They integrate multiple communication channels—including disabled refuge intercoms, fire telephones, and steward telephones—into one central panel. This makes it easier for emergency teams to coordinate an evacuation and manage communications efficiently under pressure.
Standalone Refuge Call Systems
For smaller premises or buildings with limited refuge points, standalone refuge call systems provide a cost-effective yet reliable solution. These systems are simple to install and operate, offering essential communication between refuge areas and a central control point without the need for complex integration.
Ensuring safe evacuation for everyone, without compromise.

when do you need a disabled refuge system
To meet legal and safety requirements – In many jurisdictions, buildings such as offices, schools, hospitals, and multi-storey premises are required by law to provide safe refuge points for individuals who may need assistance during an evacuation.
To protect vulnerable occupants – Refuge systems ensure that people with reduced mobility, hearing or visual impairments, or other needs have a safe, designated area with two-way communication, guaranteeing they are not left behind in an emergency.
