Smoke and CO Alarm Test Log
Prove the alarms were tested, and catch the thing most people miss: alarms have an expiry date, and a working test button does not mean a working sensor.
SC-01 2 pages

Safety checks
Alarm tests, extinguisher checks and the records that prove they happened.
Safety equipment fails quietly. These sheets exist to turn a vague sense that you tested the alarms into a dated line you can point at.
Sheets in Safety checks
Fire Extinguisher Check Log
Keep a dated record of monthly visual checks, and separate them clearly from the professional servicing that premises usually also need.
SC-02 2 pages
Emergency Contact Sheet
Put the numbers somebody needs in one place, so a house-sitter, a babysitter, a visiting relative or a tenant is not searching for them at the worst moment.
SC-03 2 pages
Fire Drill Record
Record a drill in a way that captures what went badly, which is the only part that makes the next one better.
SC-04 1 page
Next of Kin and Emergency Details Card
Put one person's emergency contacts and practical details on a single page, in the order somebody should actually work through them.
SC-05 2 pages
Fire Safety Signage and Equipment Check
Catch the things that go wrong quietly between services — a sign gone, a blocked exit, a wedged fire door — by walking the building and ticking as you go.
SC-06 1 page
Ladder and Stepladder Inspection Record
Make it clear what happened to a ladder after somebody looked at it, so a damaged one is recorded as withdrawn rather than quietly put back on the rack.
SC-07 1 page
Portable Appliance Test Register
Keep every tested appliance and its paperwork in one findable list, so an asset number on a label can be traced back to who tested it and when.
SC-08 1 page
Gas Appliance Safety Check Record
Keep your own index of who came to the gas appliances and when, so the right certificate can be found without going through a drawer of paperwork.
SC-09 1 page
Fire Alarm Call Point Test Record
Show that the call points are being worked through in turn rather than the same convenient one being used every time.
SC-10 1 page
Fire Extinguisher Record Tag Card
Give a single extinguisher its own dated check record, in reach when you actually do the check, instead of a register kept somewhere else entirely.
SC-11 1 page
Weekly Smoke Alarm Test Log
Give an interlinked or commercial alarm system tested every week its own year-long record, rather than squeezing a weekly habit into a sheet built for monthly testing.
SC-12 3 pages
Radon Test Record
Keep every radon test on one home together, so a follow-up is compared like with like. Each line also says why the test was done and what was decided after it.
SC-13 1 page
Garage Door Safety and Maintenance Check
Know the garage door still reverses and balances, and hand faults to a technician early. A door that fails a reverse test is one to stop relying on.
SC-14 1 page
Dryer Vent and Lint Cleaning Log
Clear the lint the screen misses before it builds up in the duct and becomes a fire risk. The drying time column shows a duct starting to clog.
SC-15 1 page
Lead Paint Condition Check
Catch chipping, peeling and rubbing on paint that may contain lead before it turns to dust. Each surface is listed once with its test status, then checked in turn with the repair made.
SC-16 2 pages
GFCI, AFCI and RCD Test Log
See at a glance when each safety switch was last tested, and catch one that no longer trips. Every device with a test button is numbered once, then each test goes across the grid.
SC-17 2 pages
Portable Heater Safety Check
Check each portable heater before the season starts and keep an eye on it in use. Each heater gets a column, so a frayed cord or a dead tip-over switch is written down rather than noticed and forgotten.
SC-18 1 page
Holiday Lights Safety Check
Check each set of lights and each extension lead before it goes up, and bin the damaged ones. Ratings, safety-switch protection and fixings are written down, with where it all went afterwards.
SC-19 1 page
Gas Grill and Propane Cylinder Check
Leak-test the grill's hose and joints with soapy water each season and at every cylinder swap. The hose, regulator and burner tubes get a dated line, so a perished hose is replaced before it leaks.
SC-20 1 page
Childproofing Room-by-Room Check
See at a glance which rooms still need a gate, latch, anchor or cover fitted. The recheck page catches the device that has worked loose or been left undone.
SC-21 2 pages
Home Fall Hazard Check
Find the trip and slip hazards in a home before someone finds them the hard way. Each Fix ticked becomes a line at the foot with a name and a date, so it actually gets done.
SC-22 1 page
Wildfire Home Ignition Zone Check
Clear what would carry a wildfire to the house, zone by zone, and keep a dated record of it. The photo column gives you evidence for an inspection or an insurer.
SC-23 1 page
Deck and Balcony Safety Check
Spot rot, rust and loose guards on a deck or balcony before they give way. Every Watch or Repair goes on one list with its photo, ready to hand to a builder.

Guides on safety checks
Testing Smoke Alarms Properly
The test button does not test the sensor. What it actually checks, why alarms have an expiry date, and how to keep a register that tells you which one you tested.
