You are subject to The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 which requires you to conduct a fire risk assessment and the guidance can be found in the DCLG document Offices and shops. There is guidance in http://www.firesafe....isk-assessment/ for small premises and all matters regarding fire safety which can be found in http://www.firesafe.org.uk/ including what I need in place, in the ways of fire equipment and action plan.
All my responses only apply to England and Wales and they are an overview of the subject, hopefully it will point you in the right direction and always treat with caution.   Scotland and Northern Ireland has differing legislation
