Engineering
Overview
We work with building owners and facility managers to provide full-service design and installation of life safety systems. We also can partner with contractors to provide “parts and smarts” including engineering, equipment and programming as required. Learn more about contractor services in our Partner Program.
Sound engineering design is the essence of every fire protection project we undertake. It is critical to the effectiveness of a fire protection system.
Our experienced Engineering Department conducts detailed studies to determine the optimal approach to providing the correct system application that will cost-effectively meet the specific fire protection requirement.
