Fire Alarm Systems quickly inform fire stations of a fire breakout at the earliest stage. The end result is the first line of protection from any sort of fire hazard and the complete peace of mind for you, your family, and the premises.
Maple Fire is a full-service, non-proprietary fire alarm inspection, maintenance, installation, and monitoring company.
Maple Fire offers various fire alarm systems in Metro Vancouver in a variety of configurations. Most of these fire alarm systems can be integrated with the existing fire safety system of most residential and commercial buildings in Metro Vancouver.
Every building typically needs to be equipped with four types of fire alarm system: Automatic Fire Alarm, Smoke Detectors, Sprinkler System, and Fire Indicator Panel (FIP). This four-way detection system ensures you know about a fire breakout before it’s too late, and you have enough time to arrive at a safer place.
As your partner in fire and life safety, we will support your existing system and design, and install and maintain a new one. We can work with you to create a plan to migrate your outdated or obsolete systems to newer, addressable systems. We can also provide a phased plan to help with budgeting upgrades. Properly inspected and maintained fire alarms simply work better. Our reasonably priced inspection and service rates set us apart from our competition. Commercial fire and security monitoring are available for any panel.
