Fire and security engineering, accountable since 1974

Our own engineers design, install and look after fire and security systems for commercial estates, public infrastructure and critical sites across the UK.

Built from a simple belief: do the job properly

Centurion began in Huddersfield in 1974, working on homes and small commercial premises. Our head office is still here, and we are now part of Ranger FS.

Much of our growth has come by recommendation. Our work now includes a £1.5m CCTV system for a high-profile project in the nuclear industry.

We take direct technical responsibility for every system we design, install and maintain, and we stay with it for the long term. After handover, our service desk diagnoses and fixes 75% of calls remotely, with an engineer visit when one is needed.

Engineering capability, developed in-house

We develop our engineers through apprenticeships, structured training and experience on complex live sites. That keeps technical knowledge in the company and gives you the same people from project delivery into ongoing support.

Our work in practice

Accredited and audited

Independently certified from the first drawing to the last service visit, so your systems stand up when the insurer, the fire officer or your auditors check.
