Permit-ready fire alarm systems, start to finish
Fire alarm is the heart of what we do. We prepare the drawings, riser, battery calculations and device cut sheets for your fire official, install and program the system, walk the acceptance test, and hand you as-built drawings when we leave.

- Cellular/IP communicators — no phone lines
Still on copper phone lines?
Your alarm may stop reporting when the phone line goes
Carriers are retiring copper phone lines across NJ, PA and NY. Fire panels, elevator phones and burglar alarms that dial out over copper can fail silently. We replace them with UL-listed cellular communicators — usually for less than the phone bill.
