Chubb has been protecting pubs and bars for decades. We know landlords have enough on their plate already, so why should securing their property, people, and customers add any more complications?
We install, service, and monitor your fire and security equipment, and provide training, fire risk assessments, and annual health checks to ensure your business is protected while you concentrate on what really motivates you – serving your customers.
Contact us today to learn about our fire and burglar alarms, fire extinguishers, CCTV, monitoring services, and the new range of automated electronic defibrillators (AEDs).
Although it is not mandated by UK law, CCTV systems are often required by local licensing authorities. For more information, contact your local premises licensing authority and review the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) guidance.
There is no specific legal requirement regarding the number of cameras. The system should adequately cover key areas to ensure safety and security.
If your CCTV system captures images beyond your private property, such as public areas or neighbouring properties, you must register as a data controller with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
Store footage securely, limit access to authorised personnel, and retain recordings only as long as necessary, typically no longer than 31 days. For detailed guidance, visit the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
Cameras and recording equipment should be regularly tested and serviced to ensure they’re recording correctly and capturing footage as expected. Chubb offers a remote testing functionality that checks each camera in the system once every day. We also provide a more thorough remote maintenance check every four weeks, and an in-person service every 12 months.
Yes – The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 stipulates that commercial building are legally required to have appropriate fire extinguishers. The specific types and numbers depend on the size and nature of the premises. Fire extinguishers are extremely effective at controlling fires. In 2021, 93% of fires were extinguished by a portable fire extinguisher. Chubb supplies fire extinguishers for class A, B, C, D and E fires. To learn more about which extinguishers are suitable for your business, visit our Fire Extinguisher page.
Depending on the specifics of your pub, you may require multiple extinguishers of different class. To learn more about which extinguishers are suitable for your business, visit our Fire Extinguisher page.
Yes – The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 stipulates that commercial buildings including pubs should be “equipped with appropriate fire-fighting equipment and with fire detectors and alarms.” The specific types and numbers depend on the size and nature of the premises.

Yes – The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 states that “emergency routes and exits requiring illumination must be provided with emergency lighting of adequate intensity in the case of failure of their normal lighting.”
Yes – Conducting a fire risk assessment is a legal requirement, as detailed in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. This assessment identifies potential hazards and ensures that appropriate safety measures are in place.
While not legally mandated, installing a burglar alarm enhances security and may be recommended based on your pub’s location and risk assessment. Alarms detect activity through passive infra-red (PIV) or other sensors and activate a sounder to deter intruders and alert anybody in the locality. But to make the most of your intruder alarms, your system should be connected to an alarm receiving centre (ARC). Chubb’s state-of-the-art ARC is operated by over 180 highly trained agents who can respond to activated alarms and immediately confirm the cause, contact keyholders or emergency services, and ensure your pub is protected 24/7/365.
While not legally mandated, AEDs are highly recommended for any populated premises. There are more than 30,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests in the UK each year and currently less than 1 in 10 survive. Early defibrillation within 3–5 min of cardiac arrest can increase survival rates by as high as 50-70%, so the availability of AEDs in your pub could genuinely save lives.
