Maintaining a large-scale warehouse comes with a unique set of compliance pressures. Recently, FIRESHIFT was called in to assist a logistics facility in the Logan area that had fallen behind on their routine fire safety maintenance.
The client was concerned about an upcoming insurance renewal and needed to ensure their portable equipment and exit lighting were fully compliant with Australian Standard AS 1851.
The Challenge: Missing Tags and Faulty Lighting
Upon our initial walkthrough, we identified several common “blind spots” often found in high-volume industrial sites:
Outdated Tags: Several fire extinguishers in high-traffic loading bays hadn’t been inspected in over 12 months.
Obstructed Equipment: Fire hose reels were partially blocked by pallet racking, making them inaccessible in an emergency.
Lighting Failures: During a quick 90-minute discharge test, several emergency exit signs failed to stay illuminated, posing a major risk for night-shift workers.
The FIRESHIFT Solution
Staying strictly within our specialised scope of routine inspection and testing, we implemented a 48-hour compliance turnaround:
Systematic Testing & Tagging: We inspected and tagged over 60 portable extinguishers and fire blankets, ensuring the correct “Class” of protection was available for their electrical and chemical storage areas.
Hose Reel Verification: We conducted 6-monthly operational tests on all fire hose reels to ensure the valves and nozzles were functional and the paths of travel were cleared.
Emergency Lighting Restoration: We performed a full 90-minute discharge test and replaced all failed batteries and LED tubes on-site, restoring the safety of their evacuation routes.
Digital Compliance Reporting: Within 24 hours of completion, the client received a full digital asset register and service report, providing the “proof of maintenance” required for their insurance provider.
The Result: Audit-Ready and Fully Insured
By focusing on the “Portables and Lighting” that matter most, the client was able to secure their insurance renewal with zero defects reported. They now have a simplified, 6-monthly maintenance programme that takes the guesswork out of fire safety.

Navigating the “Landlord vs. Tenant” Compliance Gap
In industrial leasing, the line between who is responsible for fire safety can often be blurred.
Structural Safety: Usually the responsibility of the Landlord (Fire walls, hydrants, sprinklers).
Operational Maintenance: Usually the responsibility of the Tenant (Extinguishers, exit lights, staff training).
FIRESHIFT works with both parties to ensure there are no “gaps” in your compliance. We provide the digital documentation needed for Annual Fire Safety Statements (NSW) and Occupier’s Statements (QLD), ensuring both the asset owner and the business operator are protected.
