Stay Ahead of Residential High-Rise Fire Inspections
As a residential high-rise building owner or manager, you understand the importance of fire safety. Annual fire inspections are a crucial aspect of maintaining a safe environment for your occupants. However, these inspections can be stressful, especially when they result in a Notice of Violation issued by the Authority Having Jurisdiction. These violations can lead to legal and financial pressures, with tight deadlines to rectify the issues.
Our team of fire safety experts offers pre-inspection services to identify potential fire code issues before the actual inspection. This proactive approach enables you to address problems early, avoiding costly surprises and ensuring compliance with fire safety regulations.
Our pre-inspections focus on identifying common fire code issues, including, but not limited to:
1. Outdated Fire Safety Plans: Fire Safety Plans must be updated regularly to reflect changes in the building’s layout, Supervisory personnel, or fire safety systems. Failure to do so can result in violations.
2. Overdue Annual Repairs: Neglecting annual repairs can compromise fire safety and lead to violations. Our team ensures that all deficiencies found on your annual reports are completed on time with the appropriate backup documentation.
3. Damaged Door Closures: Malfunctioning door closures can spread fire quickly, making them a critical violation. We inspect door closures to ensure they meet fire safety standards.
4. Fire Stopping Issues: Gaps in fire separations can allow fire to spread, leading to costly repairs and significant damage. Our team identifies and addresses fire-stopping issues.
5. Fire Alarm System Troubles: Malfunctioning fire alarm systems can put occupants at risk and result in violations. We inspect fire alarm systems to ensure they’re functioning correctly.
