Shopping Malls & Commercial Buildings
Comprehensive fire protection solutions for shopping malls, stores, and commercial complexes that address heavy foot traffic, high fire loads, and complex architecture together.
Why is fire protection different in this industry?
Shopping malls and large commercial buildings are among the most critical building types for fire safety because of high occupant density, varied tenant risk profiles, and complex architecture. Store changes, renovation projects, and each tenant's different fire load demand a system that is kept continuously up to date.

Shopping Malls & Commercial Buildings: frequently asked questions
Which regulations apply to fire systems in shopping malls?
They fall under the BYKHY (Turkish Fire Protection Regulation) and the related Turkish Standards (TS EN 12845, etc.). Enclosed shopping malls exceeding 5,000 m² are required to install a sprinkler system.
When should the fire system be updated after a tenant change?
Partitioning, ceiling finishes, or a change of use made during a tenant change directly affect the fire system. Sprinkler head locations, detection zones, and alarm zone plans must be updated, and the fire department must be informed again.
Is a fire maintenance contract mandatory in shopping malls?
Yes. Under BYKHY, periodic maintenance and inspection of fire systems is mandatory. Maintenance records are among the documents that must be presented during inspections.
How is the smoke exhaust system coordinated with other systems in shopping malls?
Smoke exhaust dampers are activated automatically and manually, integrated with the detection system. When the architectural ceiling layout and tenant partitions change, smoke exhaust coordination is re-planned together with the sprinkler and alarm zones.
How is the detection system extended for a newly opened store?
The addressable alarm panel architecture allows a new tenant space to be added as a separate zone. The detector type is selected according to the store's use, and the new zone is integrated into the existing panel so that floor-by-floor monitoring continues.
