QLD Smoke Alarm Deadline is Approaching – Is Your Home Compliant?
From January 2027, all Queensland homes must meet updated smoke alarm legislation.
Smoke alarms aren’t just a requirement, they’re essential for protecting your home and family.
Quick check:
Are your smoke alarms working properly?
✔ Do they meet current QLD legislation?
✔ Are they interconnected throughout the home?
✔ Are your smoke alarms over 5 years old? (Time to check or consider upgrading)
Many homes still have outdated or non-compliant alarms that will need upgrading.
What the new legislation requires:
- Photoelectric smoke alarms
- Interconnected alarms throughout the home
- Installed in every bedroom, hallways, and on each level
- Must comply with Australian Standard AS 3786-2014
