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.
Alarms continued to go off early in the morning. Called on a Saturday and within 90 mins had a tech on site. Great bloke! Thanks again Andrew
We contacted Queensland Smoke Alarms for quote and received a very courteous follow up phone call. The quote was detailed and we were able to book a convenient appointment on line. Fernando arrived around the appointed time, he explained how the new alarms would work, and completed a very professional installation. He then demonstrated the alarm controls and ensured that I understood everything. Before leaving, Fernando issued a compliance certificate . We sought a quote from another company for the Red Professional alarms and they were more expensive and not as quick to respond. Couldn’t fault the service from Queensland Smoke Alarms

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.
