fire alarms
Building emergency signals
Fire alarms are devices that detect smoke, heat, or fire and produce a loud warning sound.
Buildings have fire alarms to alert occupants to evacuate.
The term also covers the alarm signal itself: The fire alarm went off in the middle of the night.
False alarms from burnt toast or steam are common annoyances in homes and offices.
