Fire alarm systems provide a means to identify a developing fire though detectors or manual pull stations and alerting building occupants to a fire condition and the need to evacuate. The system may also signal the fire department and can initiate automatic fire suppression systems. The control panel is the brain of the alarm system and is responsible for monitoring the alarm input devices such as detection and activating output devices such as signaling. Proshield Fire & Security employs NICET certified and state licensed technicians to ensure that the fire alarm system services offered and install are in compliance with the latest code requirements and regulations.

The burglar alarm system consists of devices that detect unauthorized entry. The control panel is the brains of the system. When it detects an emergency, it calls a monitoring station, which immediately alerts proper authorities. The keypad located at entrances allows you to arm and disarm the security system. Door contacts are magnetic devices that trigger the alarm system when opened. Motion sensors are interior protection devices which detect changes in infrared energy levels. Glassbreak detectors identify the sound of breaking glass.

Fire sprinklers are the minimum protection system for commercial buildings. In a fire sprinkler system, a network of piping filled with water under pressure is installed behind the walls and ceilings, and individual sprinklers are placed along the piping to protect the areas beneath them. If fire breaks out, the air temperature above the fire rises and when it gets hot enough, the sprinkler activates by spraying water forcefully over the flames. Only the sprinkler(s) nearest the fire activate. Let Proshield Fire & Security's professional team manage the design, installation and service of your fire sprinkler system.
