panel testing, troubleshooting and repair.
Strength in Custom Design
We supply fire protection systems for all industries from manufacturing and medical
to telecommunications and schools. The expertise of our design department allows
us to provide clients with custom protection systems to meet their specific needs.
We have the ability to craft industrial application CO2 systems, and
systems that function with low voltage wiring or multiple means of actuation.
Areas of Specialization – Historical
Retrofitting
The Pittsburgh office is exceptionally skilled at retrofitting
fire protection systems in historic landmarks. We often work
on buildings that are 100-200 years old. Our team understands
the challenges encountered when working with dated construction
standards.
We coordinate closely with the project’s owner
and take extra precautions not to damage finishes on the floor or walls while
retrofitting sprinklers and other fire protections systems.
