Smart Gas and Smoke Detection Systems for UK Workshops and Garages

Garages and workshops frequently operate at a higher risk because of the potential for major safety hazards from flammable materials, paint fumes, fuel vapours, and soldering smoke. To help shield your workspace, employees, and equipment from invisible threats, USK Digital has created an inexpensive IoT-based solution.

Our intelligent monitoring system continuously scans the air for smoke or dangerous gases. This system provides basic security during off-peak hours in addition to motion detection. It's perfect for independent repair shops, hobby garages, and small auto shops.

Real-Time Alerts Without the Overhead

We use an ESP8266-based microcontroller that connects to:

  • MQ-135 gas sensors for detecting smoke and harmful air quality

  • Ultrasonic sensors to monitor unauthorised entry

  • Buzzers and LEDs to warn of danger immediately

  • Blynk app for sending instant alerts to your mobile

This provides you with a top-notch solution without the hassle of complicated installation or expensive subscription fees. You can keep an eye on your area from a distance, get important notifications, and take quick action to avoid dangers to your health, property, or fire.
