The Queensland Fire & Emergency Service is the regulator, and the Queensland Government is the legislator. This legislation is being phased in and we are now entering the final phase which affects owner-occupiers.
By 1st January, 2027 owner occupiers and all Queensland dwellings must have photoelectric, interconnected smoke alarms in the bedrooms, outside of the bedrooms and at least one on every level of the dwelling.
If you are selling a house in Queensland, you must comply with the new Queensland smoke alarm laws. If you don’t then the buyer can penalise you .15% of the contract price at settlement.
If you are a landlord then you must comply by the next lease renewal from 1.1.22 or before a new lease commences from 1.1.22.
Non-compliance could result in an infringement notice from the QFES
Queensland’s 2027 smoke alarm laws are approaching — ensure your property is safe, compliant, and protected early.
We needed to upgrade our smoke alarms, I was recommended to use Queensland Smoke Alarms. Booking was so easy, you speak to a real human and she was lovely and even found a day to install that suited me. The fitter on the day was polite, friendly, informative and did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing smoke alarms checked or fitted.
Very quick & efficient service to get compliant. The installer was extremely professional & helpful. I didn't know that we had 2 hard wired alarms. Someone who must've lived here before put a battery alarm over the top of a hard wired alarm & we didn't see the hole until he removed the old alarm. We found his advice very good & couldn't recommend the company highly enough. Great job done. Thanks 😃
Our mission is to protect the lives of Queensland residents, by upgrading existing smoke alarm systems to interconnected systems that rapidly alert occupants to the early stage of a potential fire in their home and to protect them from electrocution by testing and installing electrical safety switches.
