What Makes a Fire Safety Company Excellent?

Excellent fire safety companies wear many hats. They are fire detection system designers, precision installers, dedicated testers, on-the-spot maintainers, and vigilant monitors. Two particular elements are required to be a top-notch fire alarm and safety company. They are:

1. Highly trained, dedicated and certified personnel devoted to preserving the lives and welfare of the occupants of the buildings they service.
2. The most sophisticated, state-of-the-art detection and notification systems available.

While these prerequisites seem like an oversimplification, not every company can qualify.

High Rise Security Systems in Chicago

High Rise Security (HRSS) is a Chicago-based company with a 30-year combined record of success and optimal performance. Experts in what they do and proficient in how they do it, HRSS is a supplier of fire detection systems for many hospitality, commercial, and educational facilities throughout the region. These high-occupancy facilities range from sprawling campuses to multi-story structures.

HRSS is UL and NICET-certified, and technicians are trained in the installation, programming, and maintenance of highly technical equipment.

Design, Install, Maintain, and Monitor

No all fire safety companies offer full-service fire detection systems combined with physical security systems that include access control. During the design phase, HRSS technicians can integrate the fire and smoke detection systems with a centrally monitored access control and CCTV surveillance system.

Design phase involves studying the building plan to locate the right equipment in the appropriate places. Proper fire system designs provide instant notification and efficient evacuation instructions in case of an emergency.

Installation is more than placing and wiring. Each device in the system must be securely programmed and connected to the control panel and the building’s monitoring location. All elements must be integrated and tested to ensure operational proficiency before commissioning. The fire safety company will guarantee the building permits will be issued.

Ongoing maintenance is a critical service. HRSS offers an affordable maintenance and testing program to ensure that all systems work and the control panels are operable. Parts wear out or are sometimes affected by dirt, grime, or impact. Regular testing is essential.

Fire alarm monitoring service is important to protect occupants and buildings. Programmed to alert the monitoring service in case of danger, this feature is a necessary safety component to assure quick response by local fire and police agencies. HRSS monitoring is handled by well-trained and dedicated professionals 24/7 365 days a year.
