Find answers to the most common questions about the Fire Log Book. Everything here is based on how the system actually works - no jargon, no assumptions.
The Digital Fire Log Book is an online platform that replaces traditional paper fire log books. It helps you record, track, and manage all your fire safety checks in one place, with automatic reminders and clear traffic-light status updates to show what's urgent, what's due soon, and what's completed.
The traffic light system gives you an instant overview of your fire safety status:
Red: Urgent or overdue checks
Amber: Checks that are due soon
Green: Completed and up to date
With a quick glance, you'll always know what needs attention.
