More than just fire watch...

Our fire watch team is primarily composed of law enforcement officers with extensive experience protecting people and property.

They will perform regular patrols, inspecting all sensitive areas for signs of smoke, fire, or other hazards. Additionally, they will maintain detailed fire watch logs to meet insurance requirements, state regulations, and fire marshal standards.

What is a fire watch service?

Fire watch services provide on-site personnel to monitor your property when fire alarm or suppression systems are offline. Our trained officers patrol the premises, identify fire hazards, and are prepared to contact emergency services immediately if needed.

When is fire watch required?

Fire watch is typically required when fire alarms, sprinklers, or suppression systems are out of service due to maintenance, construction, or malfunction. It’s also mandated by fire marshals in many jurisdictions during high-risk periods.

Are your fire watch officers trained?

Yes. Our officers receive specialized training in fire hazard recognition, emergency response, and documentation protocols. Most are also law enforcement professionals or certified security officers.

Do you provide 24/7 fire watch coverage?

Yes, we offer continuous fire watch coverage—day or night, including weekends and holidays—ensuring full compliance and safety at all times.

How quickly can you respond to a fire watch request?

We offer rapid response across Middle Tennessee and surrounding areas. In many cases, we can dispatch officers to your site within just a few hours.

Can your fire watch officers also perform security duties?

Absolutely. In addition to fire safety patrols, our officers can handle security-related tasks like access control, perimeter checks, and incident reporting.

Will your service meet fire marshal requirements?

Yes. Our fire watch procedures comply with state and local fire codes. We also coordinate directly with fire marshals as needed to ensure your property stays in compliance during inspections or temporary outages.
