Alerts deaf to alarm

DMS (Deaf Message Service) is a new fire safety product that informs deaf or hard of hearing people when the fire alarm sounds in a public place like a supermarket, shopping centre or library. It also helps service providers and employers comply with the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA).

When a deaf or hard of hearing person enters a building where DMS is installed, they will see clear signage asking them to text a location code to the DMS number.

In the event the fire alarm sounding, the DMS controller unit, will trigger a process that within seconds sends a text message to all people connected to that location.
