Queensland Smoke Alarm Requirements - Is Your Property Compliant?

Queensland has some of Australia's strictest smoke alarm legislation, designed to improve fire safety and provide earlier warning for occupants.

From 1 January 2027, Queensland's smoke alarm requirements apply to all existing private homes, in addition to rental properties and homes being sold.

To meet the applicable Queensland requirements, smoke alarms must:

• Be photoelectric and comply with Australian Standard AS 3786:2014.

• Be interconnected so that when one alarm activates, all interconnected alarms sound.

• Be either hardwired to the mains power supply or powered by a non-removable 10-year battery.

• Be installed in every bedroom.

• Be installed in hallways connecting bedrooms to the rest of the dwelling.

• Be installed on each storey, including appropriate locations on storeys without bedrooms.

• Be less than 10 years old and operate correctly when tested.

Smoke Alarms for Rental Properties

Queensland rental properties must already comply with the upgraded smoke alarm requirements. Landlords and property managers also have ongoing responsibilities for smoke alarm maintenance and testing.

Smoke Alarms When Selling Your Home

Properties being sold in Queensland must meet the applicable smoke alarm requirements. Upgrading your alarms before listing your property can help avoid delays during the sale process.
