Install four selected interconnected smoke alarms at agreed positions using suitable existing power or approved selected equipment. The estimate is a bounded document: the customer should be able to compare the described work with its measured lines, product allowances and exclusions.

Read each quantity with its unit: area, length, time, count and lump sum describe different work and must not be interchanged. Interconnected smoke alarm installation in Birmingham — GBP, fictional inputs Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount | Position survey and plan | 1 lump sum | £168.00 | £168.00 | Alarm unit allowance | 4 each | £76.00 | £304.00 | Bases and connection parts | 1 set | £144.00 | £144.00 | Cable routing allowance | 1 lump sum | £256.00 | £256.00 | Alarm fitting labour | 4 each | £116.00 | £464.00 | Interconnection test | 1 lump sum | £192.00 | £192.00 | Handoff labels and clean-up | 1 lump sum | £80.00 | £80.00 | Illustrative total | £1,608.00 | The table separates the named product or material allowances from labour and site tasks wherever the scope needs that distinction. Before replacing a rate, check whether the product allowance includes delivery, waste, fixings and the selected specification. How the total is calculated Alarm unit allowance is 4 each × £76.00 = £304.00. Alarm fitting labour is 4 each × £116.00 = £464.00. The other lines follow the same calculation and sum to £1,608.00 . Each fixture line lands on an exact penny, so the native PDF total equals the sum of the displayed line amounts. Measurement to check: Count rooms and alarm positions, record ceiling construction and interconnection route. Selection to check: Identify alarm units, bases and interconnection components separately. The 0% tax field and zero markup are example document inputs, not an instruction for a live quote. Decide the correct settings for your own business and job. Assumptions and exclusions Confirm the required local design with a qualified installer before setting the positions. Outside this stated scope: No whole-building fire-system design, panel replacement or guarantee of regulatory compliance without review. A missing circuit or inaccessible route changes installation method. A changed condition should lead to a newly measured quantity, explicit revised allowance or separately agreed task. Keep the customer informed of which figure changed and why before producing another PDF.
