Our Fire Alarm Services

Fire Alarm Installations

New construction or retrofit — we design and install complete fire alarm systems for apartments, commercial buildings, restaurants, hotels, and more. All work is permitted and inspected to California Title 19 and NFPA 72 standards.

Monitoring & UL Certificates

24/7 UL-listed central station monitoring ensures that your building is protected around the clock. We issue the UL certificate required by your fire marshal, insurance carrier, or local jurisdiction.

Annual Inspections

California fire code requires annual testing of all fire alarm systems. We perform a full functional test of every detector, pull station, horn, strobe, and control panel — and provide a written inspection report.

Emergency Lights

Emergency and exit lighting must activate automatically when power fails. We test, maintain, and replace emergency light units and exit signs to keep your egress paths lit and code-compliant.
