Fire3D is UK-based cloud fire alarm design software for creating system designs, specifications, as-fitted drawings, zone plans, quotes and device coverage checks. This page sets out the plans shown on the Fire3D homepage on 11 November 2026 (Europe/London). If the homepage and this page ever disagree, treat the homepage as the source of truth until both have been updated.

Every plan below includes a 30-day free trial with no credit card, and the trial is described on the site as covering all features, or all core features. After the trial, you can choose Growing or Unlimited, billed monthly or annually.

Prices are shown in pounds sterling, as they appear on the Fire3D homepage. The site does not state whether prices include VAT. “Colleague” is written correctly here; the live homepage currently spells it “Collegue”.

What is included in the 30-day free trial

The homepage trial card is labelled “TRY IT”, priced as free, and lists a 30-day free trial and “Trial All Features”. The call-to-action is “Get 30 Day Free Trial (No Credit Card)”. A homepage FAQ confirms that Fire3D offers a free trial period with access to all core features, so fire alarm engineers and security professionals can test the platform before committing.

That means you can try the same design and document tools that appear on the paid plans, including the AI-assisted system designer, specification and quote tools, and the zone plan designer, for 30 days without entering a card. The homepage does not list a separate upload cap or AI-credit cap for the trial period itself, beyond “trial all features”. If you need a written confirmation of trial limits for a purchase order, ask at admin@fire3ddesign.com during the trial.

Customer comments on the homepage describe people starting with the 30-day trial and then continuing on a paid plan. Liam of Chilman Fire & Security wrote that they signed up for the 30-day trial and signed off on the subscription after two days.

Monthly vs annual billing

Each paid plan shows two prices on the homepage: a monthly price and a lower per-month price when you pay annually.

  • Growing is £49.99 per month (£599.88 a year), or £41.66 per month billed annually, which is £499.90 a year.
  • Unlimited is £99.99 per month (£1,199.88 a year), or £83.33 per month billed annually, which is £999.90 a year.

Paying annually saves £99.98 a year on Growing and £199.98 a year on Unlimited, compared with paying month by month.

The homepage does not describe what happens if you change plan mid-term, how invoices are issued, or whether you can cancel at any time. Those details are not stated on the public pricing table, so they are not restated here. Check the terms or email admin@fire3ddesign.com if you need them in writing.

What you can do in Fire3D on either paid plan

Both Growing and Unlimited include the same core design and document tools. The difference is capacity (uploads, AI credits and user accounts) and, on Unlimited, enhanced support and feature requests.

Zone plans

Produce professional PDF zone plans from a floor plan you upload or draw, using drag-and-drop tools. The homepage describes this taking around 10 minutes, with branding added to the PDF. Read the fire alarm zone plan software page for the workflow and the BS 5839-1 plan checklist.

Coverage checks

Fire3D checks detector and beam coverage, sounder and VAD placement, manual call point travel distance and zone search distance, and can produce PDF coverage summaries for detection, sounders, call points and VADs. See fire alarm coverage checks.

Specifications and as-fitted drawings

The software generates design specifications, as-fitted drawings, device schedules and pick lists as professional PDFs, with device locations cross-referenced to drawing numbers. See fire alarm specification and as-fitted software.

Quotes and estimates

Quote creation tools and device cost support are included so you can produce costed fire alarm proposals alongside the design. The homepage describes this as producing quotes and estimates in a fraction of the time, with a faster design turnaround for tenders.

The homepage also states that Fire3D is pre-loaded with all major UK brands, works from PDF floor plans, and does not require AutoCAD or specialist CAD skills. Company logos and business details can be added to specifications, zone plans and other PDF documents. Designs can be stored on the Fire3D cloud.

Which plan is which, in plain terms

Growing is the lower-priced plan: 5 floorplan uploads per month, £5 of AI credits per month, and a single user account, with the same designer, specification, quote and zone plan tools as Unlimited. It suits a designer or a small firm working through a modest number of floor plans each month.

Unlimited removes the floorplan upload cap, doubles the listed AI credits to £10 per month, and adds two colleague accounts alongside the main user, plus enhanced support and feature requests. It suits teams that need more than one person in the account, or jobs that would exceed five floorplan uploads in a month.

The site does not currently list a zone-plans-only tier, a multi-year plan, or a “call for pricing” enterprise card on the visible homepage table. If your team needs something those two plans do not describe, contact admin@fire3ddesign.com.

“We’ve been using Fire3D for well over a year now. We started with the basic package for composing zone charts which helped us save a lot of money, then the team at fire3d added the system design and specification features which we upgraded to use and there was no looking back. Fire3D has helped us speed up our processes and win more work thanks to the fast professional designs, specification documents and zone charts.”
