At Strategic Connections, we bring over 20 years of experience in fire alarm installation. Specifically, we have been working with alarm systems from Gamewell-FCI, Silent Knight and others, so we understand the intricacies of all types of systems and are able to use those and other brands to design and install custom systems.

Whether you are installing a brand-new system in a new building or replacing an old legacy system across an entire campus, we have experienced, knowledgeable technicians who know how to do the job right. Each one of our technicians is NICET certified up to NICET level III and IV. Since our company offers numerous specializations, including wiring, fire protection,  and fire alarm monitoring, we are capable of completing your entire fire alarm installation, including but not limited to:

  • Raceway
  • Wiring
  • Device Mounting
  • Fire Alarm System Programming
  • Continued Fire Alarm Service

Strategic Connections offers a broad spectrum of services, including installing fire alarms, and can work with you through this process from the initial consultation to the final walkthrough without having to rely on subcontractors. We can even connect your new, or old, fire alarm system to a new BDA system using a monitor module, supporting all public safety frequency bands.

Our turnkey installation and in-house work eliminates the root causes of many problems that we encounter with fire alarm systems, such as wiring problems and functionality failures caused by improper installation. When there are multiple companies and contractors with their hands in the projects, the likelihood of a mistake skyrockets. We eliminate many of these problems by being able to fulfill all roles.

Our ability to see your project through from start to finish ensures quality work and peace of mind where you need it most from a fire alarm installation company.

Strategic Connections understands how much of a hassle it is to get your fire alarm system inspected. This can be doubly true on large campuses such as a business park, shopping center, military base or college university. The disruption of having to test every initiating device and notification device in your system can be a large impediment to getting work done. We also understand why fire alarm inspections are necessary from both a legal and Fire Code requirement. We employ NICET (National Institute for Certification in Engineering Technologies) certified and state-licensed inspection technicians who are not only able to perform the required inspections, but also to repair and correct any deficiencies that may exist in your fire alarm system.

Legal and Safety Obligations

Many business owners that we encounter are not aware that fire alarm inspections are mandatory. The fire alarm inspections take place annually, and business owners are legally-required to file a report with the local jurisdiction, as well as keeping a copy that is usually checked every three years by the local Fire Inspector. In addition to a legal requirement, a functional inspection of your Fire Alarm System can reap important safety results. If you get your Fire Alarm System inspected by Strategic Connections, you can be assured that your system has been tested thoroughly and properly inspected per the requirements of the Fire Code. Each and every detector (initiating device) and alarm (notification device) is inspected to make sure it functions, and the smoke detectors are also cleaned.

Strategic Connections is uniquely positioned to make sure that your fire alarm system inspection is done properly. We employ NICET certified technicians who are qualified and trained to determine whether your property is meeting the safety requirements of NFPA-72 and the state. If, during your inspection, a deficiency is discovered within your Fire Alarm System, we can also perform the required correction. In addition, we have a Fire Protection (Fire Sprinkler) System Department, so together we can guarantee that your property and personnel are protected.

Strategic Connections Fire Alarm System Monitoring

At Strategic Connections, we understand that any fire alarm system is only as good as the monitoring service attached to it. Your fire or smoke problem can be best addressed only if the correct authorities are sent to the correct area, and you can minimize damages only if your evacuations are speedy and well-organized. We believe that the best way to make sure that your fire alarm system monitoring is as good as possible is to have the best monitoring solution.

Fire Alarm System Design

If you are building a new building, up-fitting an existing space, or merely wish to get an existing Fire Alarm System replaced, getting the proper Fire Alarm System Design that fits your unique needs can be a challenge. Your building may have a unique design that precludes a standard layout, or perhaps you have an old building that presents its own set of unique design challenges. Regardless of these challenges, Strategic Connections will provide you with a top-quality Fire Alarm System Design. All of our design personnel are qualified to at least NICET level III, and our team leaders are all NICET IV certified. This means that your design will always be done by highly-qualified Fire Alarm System Designers, and guarantees that your design meets the requirements of the Fire Code, and that it is the best possible fit for your building.

Our Fire Alarm System Design Difference

At Strategic Connections, we believe that a good Fire Alarm System Design can forestall many problems later in the life of your property. One of the main things that sets us apart from many other Fire Alarm companies is that not only can we do the design, but we also produce the shop drawings, all battery and voltage drop calculations, and other documents required for the permitting of a Fire Alarm System installation. These shop drawings have to be approved by the local fire official before the installation of a Fire Alarm System can begin. The shop drawings also include the circuitry configuration for your Fire Alarm System Design. Strategic Connections does all of its own Fire Alarm System Design in-house using CAD software. This means that your design will meet the national fire code, and will be the optimal design for the unique layout of your building. This guarantees the safety of your employees and your property, and makes sure that your Fire Alarm System Design is up to the highest national standards.
