Annual Smoke Alarm Compliance: Keeping Your Property Safe & Legal

At Brand Property, we take safety and compliance seriously. One of the most important parts of property management is ensuring your smoke alarms are checked and working every year. Here’s why it matters — and how we make it easy for you.

Annual Checks – A Legal Requirement

In New South Wales, landlords are legally required to have all smoke alarms inspected at least once every 12 months. These annual checks ensure your alarms are fully operational and ready to protect tenants in an emergency.
Compliance isn’t just about meeting regulations it’s about safeguarding your investment and your tenants’ safety.

Where Smoke Alarms Need to Be

For maximum protection, smoke alarms must be installed:

• In hallways near bedrooms

• Close to doors to provide early alerts in the event of smoke or fire

Not sure if your property meets placement requirements? We can arrange an inspection to confirm everything’s in the right place.
