Research edition: 28 September 2026. Contract availability is unconfirmed. This text view includes the published research; working notes remain in the interactive workspace on your device.
Service territory
Nottingham, Derby, Leicester, Loughborough and Mansfield; commercial installations also advertised across the wider UK
Work to prioritise
Fire-alarm maintenance and justified upgrades, with access-control interfaces checked where relevant.
Start here · Pre-opening
Foxcrest Hills
Crystal Care Collection · Coalville, Leicestershire
Programme: Winter 2026 Source checked: 2026-09-28
Target scope
Fire-alarm servicing after handover; establish any door-access interfaces within that scope before including them.
Why it fits
Coalville fits Mercury’s Leicestershire footprint, and the late-stage opening forecast suits a service-first discussion grounded in its residential-home alarm work.
Recommended first move
Ask Crystal’s group team at hello@crystalcarecollection.co.uk for Foxcrest Hills’ estates lead, with the enquiry explicitly about ongoing alarm support.
Timing
The operator lists winter 2026. Installation may already be complete or committed; no upgrade need has been identified.
Qualification questions
What alarm equipment and service-access restrictions apply?
Who is responsible for testing any alarm-to-door-release interface?
When does the installer’s support period end?
Is the maintenance provider selected locally or under a group agreement?
Prepare before contact
The Farriess Court case-study link and a concise description of Mercury’s actual scope there.
A proposed alarm service scope with access-control interfaces listed as subject to confirmation.
Reasons to stop
A fixed group service agreement leaves no forthcoming review.
Interface work requires access or approvals Mercury cannot obtain.

Subject: Foxcrest Hills: alarm servicing after handover
Hello,
We are Mercury Fire & Security. Our care-home work includes the fire-alarm upgrade and additional door-access equipment at Farriess Court Residential Home.
We noticed Foxcrest Hills is listed for winter 2026. Who is coordinating alarm maintenance once the home is handed over? We would like to understand the installed system, warranty support and any door-access interfaces before suggesting a service scope. If that is already arranged, the next review date would be useful to know.
Kind regards,
Mercury Fire & Security

Cinnamon Care Collection · Thurnby, Leicestershire
Programme: September 2026; actual opening not verified Source checked: 2026-09-28
Target scope
A future alarm-maintenance review, including the ownership of access-control interfaces and fault reporting.
Why it fits
Thurnby is within Mercury’s Leicester service area. A forecast opening date calls for a status check and service introduction, not an installation bid.
Recommended first move
Call Cinnamon’s published head-office number, 01784 772 770, to confirm Thurnby Fields’ actual handover/opening and request the estates buyer. Use Kori’s works@koriconstruction.com route only for contractor handover or warranty context.
Timing
Kori forecast September 2026; actual opening was not verified in the source set. Confirm the transfer from construction support to Cinnamon first.
Qualification questions
Has the home been handed over and opened?
Which contractor currently owns alarm faults and door-release interface issues?
Is routine servicing included in that appointment?
When would Cinnamon next consider a local maintenance provider?
Prepare before contact
A one-page maintenance introduction referencing Farriess Court.
A checklist separating warranty defects, routine servicing and proposed alterations.
Reasons to stop
Opening remains delayed and there is no estates procurement date.
The incumbent appointment covers the service period and the operator declines a future review.

Subject: Thurnby Fields: alarm maintenance contact
Hello,
We are Mercury Fire & Security. Our care-home work includes the fire-alarm upgrade and additional door-access equipment at Farriess Court Residential Home.
Kori’s June announcement forecast a September opening for Thurnby Fields. Could you confirm whether handover has taken place and direct us to the person responsible for ongoing alarm support? We are interested in the maintenance timetable and any access-control interfaces within the scope, rather than assuming the installation needs further work.
Kind regards,
Mercury Fire & Security
