Behind the Beep: Fire Systems and Standards Demystified

- Darwin
Behind the Beep is a practical, plain-language session designed to help property professionals better understand and meet their obligations under Australian Standard 1851 for fire detection and maintenance.
Tailored for residential and commercial property managers, landlords, strata members and local business owners, this event focuses on practical tools and clear interpretations that reduce compliance risk, support proactive decision-making, and strengthen operational resilience.
Hosted by Infinite Fire Solutions, a Territory-owned fire detection company, this session will:
• Break down the real-world meaning of AS 1851
• Help you identify and avoid common compliance gaps
• Explain fire system reporting and service intervals in plain English
• Offer practical tools to future-proof your fire safety strategy
With NT Fire & Rescue Service (NTFRS) and the Fire Protection Association Australian (FPAA) invited to attend, this event also reflects the power of collaboration across industry and government — a united front to improve fire safety outcomes for the Territory.
In the spirit of this year’s OBM theme, “Play to Our Strengths,” we’re drawing on the local fire industry’s deep technical knowledge and real-world experience to build a stronger, more resilient property sector — one informed manager at a time.
Whether you're managing an apartment block, retail space, or short-term accommodation, this session will help you stay compliant, confident, and one step ahead.
Light breakfast catering to be included.
