Fire alarm services in Hudson County, NJ

Fire alarm work for Hudson County’s dense building stock

Hudson County fits one of the densest mixes of buildings in New Jersey into 12 municipalities: waterfront towers in Jersey City, Hoboken and Weehawken, older walk-ups and mixed-use buildings in Union City and West New York, and logistics space in Secaucus, Kearny and Harrison. ISTFIRE inspects, maintains, repairs and upgrades the fire alarm systems in all of them, and designs and commissions new systems for owners, engineers and electrical contractors.

High-rise and multifamily systems

A tall building’s fire alarm system is more than detectors and horns. We test and service the parts that make it work as a whole:

• Voice evacuation and emergency communication, including floor-by-floor paging
• Fire command center equipment and firefighter controls
• Elevator recall with lobby, hoistway and machine room detection
• Stair pressurization, smoke control and HVAC shutdown interfaces
• Sprinkler waterflow and tamper supervision
• Apartment notification and common-area detection

Inspections and the fire official

Hudson County buildings are inspected under the New Jersey Uniform Fire Code. Enforcement is local: each municipality’s fire prevention office inspects most occupancies, and in some towns the New Jersey Division of Fire Safety inspects life hazard uses directly. Either way, a complete NFPA 72 test report is what you hand the inspector, and it is what we deliver after every inspection.

For housing authorities and other public owners, we work within public bidding, prevailing wage and certified payroll rules.
