Honeywell Gent is synonymous with quality and innovation in the fire detection and alarm industry and safeguards the lives of everyone who enters some the worlds most prestigious buildings.
Honeywell Gent fire detection systems have been developed to the highest possible standards to deliver the most advanced fire detection and alarm systems available in the market today. As market leader, we have a broad range of Analogue Addressable and Conventional fire detection systems. In addtion to this we have built up our expertise in voice alarm systems and have a range of systems to suit to most applications.
Honeywell Gent offer the following Product Ranges:
OSID (Open Area Smoke Detection)
OSID provides reliable, cost-effective smoke detection for open spaces where fire detection presents unique challenges and where very early warning is not always the priority.
Flame Detection
The Honeywell conventional flame detection range comprises of 2 families: the FSX range being suitable for industrial type applications, Zone 1 hazardous area units and the FSL range being Zone 2 hazardous area units.
Conventional Fire Detection Systems
From control panels through to manual call points, detectors, bells, door releases and sounders, Honeywell Gent provides a cost effective conventional fire detection system scalable for sites of all types.
Analogue Addressable (Single Loop)
Nano is the latest fire detection control panel from Honeywell Gent. Ideal for smaller sites that require advanced fire sensing and evacuation options, the single loop, analogue addressable panel offers end users a compact system backed by the power of Vigilon loop technology. Certified to EN 54 parts 2 & 4 the standard panel is self contained with batteries to maintain 24-hour standby.
Analogue Addressable (1-6 Loop)
Vigilon is the most comprehensive life safety system available in the market today. The combination of the powerful software in the control panel and the intelligent loop powered devices delivers a flexible, easy to use system for all types of buildings.
Detection & Alarm Devices
The strength of Vigilon and Nano lies in the combination of powerful control panel software with Honeywell Gent’s market-leading range of intelligent devices.
Text and Graphics Software
WINMAG Graphics Management System is an invaluable software tool for any size of network that allows for complete management of the fire detection and alarm system from a central PC.
Interfaces
A range of interface units are available to connect the fire detection system with other detection equipment or to control plant and fire protection equipment.
Voice Alarms and Loudspeakers
Honeywell Gent offers a complete range of Voice Alarm systems integrated with the Vigilon Detection system to suit a wide range of sites and applications.
Aspirating Smoke Detection
Honeywell Gent’s range of Aspirating Smoke Detection, also known as Air Sampling Detection (ASD) systems can detect fires at a very early stage, often before visible smoldering takes place, before an open fire occurs and before intense smoke develops.
Emergency Voice Communications
This Emergency Voice Communication System (EVCS) is designed to fully comply with BS5839 Pt9 2003 (abb. Pt9) for use as a fire telephone system, disabled refuge call system or as a combined system when both fire telephones and disabled refuge points are required.
Paging
The Response Paging System offers the latest innovations in wireless paging and monitoring. It’s a cost effective and flexible paging system that offers the ability to quickly respond to activated alarms.
Central Batteries
Honeywell Gent’s central battery systems provide peace of mind – they ensure that emergency lighting continues to function regardless of the fire situation, facilitating a safe and orderly evacuation. Central battery systems also simplify maintenance by providing a single testing point for all luminaires.

Honeywell Gent - Rav's COMMISSIONTool
Honeywell Gent - Rav's COMMISSIONTool
Honeywell Gent is proud to see Rav Sispal’s work being recognised after all his hard work. We are grateful that he chose to work on Gent products which earned him a First Class MSci Honours. Read his full article…
I’m grateful to have received such a profoundly positive response from Honeywell Gent and its customers for my efforts to develop a new concept fire alarm Commissioning Tool, as a part of my Computer Science Degree. The project led to me becoming 2020’s recipient of the Outstanding MSci Individual Project award from The University of Nottingham’s School of Computer Science and contributed to my incredibly hard-earned First Class MSci Honours.
The project I devised aimed to improve the commissioning experience of fire detection and alarm systems, to reduce inherent complexity and increase engineer efficiency for faster system handover. These were just two areas where my research highlighted notable frustration. Throughout my own extensive usage of Gent products over the last decade, I experienced the disparity between the current tools being used for fire alarm commissioning/maintenance/end-use compared to those in other industries where mobile technologies and apps are fundamentally transforming existing processes.
Pushing far beyond a concept, I produced a highly functional prototype application, offering deep integration with Honeywell Gent’s unrivalled Vigilon and Nano fire systems whilst providing access to the powerful features of S-Quad and S-Cubed. The carefully crafted architecture is capable of offering support for products from SMS, Notifier and Morley sister brands too.
This cross-platform application, designed and developed in ~5 months (amid COVID-19), was built using React.js, TypeScript and ElectronJS. More complex functionality such as serial communication, proprietary product secrets and authorisation API’s were handled natively via the NodeJS NAPI C++ framework. This combination of cutting-edge technologies has allowed for an incredibly capable tool to be rapidly developed “from the ground up”.
At the core is a combination of reusable user interface components and data processing API’s that cater for past/existing product ranges whilst paving the way for future product introductions, ultimately reducing development time to weeks instead of months. COMMISSIONTool offers a small preview into the future of the fire and security industry, showing the power of how software can deeply complement the hardware offered by the most prestigious brands. This project highlights the benefit of carefully reimagining complex processes to encourage wider adoption of the latest product improvements, ultimately serving to better protect our lives and property.
It’s a huge step forward for an under-appreciated industry. I’m just getting started!

10 years within the Gent Approved Network for West London Security.
Even in these uncertain times, we are still pleased to be celebrating our partnership with our customers!
Yesterday, while on a project site visit in Maida Vale, London, dressed in full PPE, Gary Elson (Gent Business Manager for London & South East) presented Jason Jeffery, Director of West London Security with a 10 year award.
Unfortunately a party and handshake will have to wait for the time being, but we are still grateful for the past 10 years with West London Security.
Thank you for your partnership and we look forward to the next 10 years.
