Alarm System Down? Your Business May Need Fire Watch Guard Services

What does ‘Fire Watch’ mean when it comes to security officer services?  In most cases, fire watch services are necessary when a protective alarm system is down or has malfunctioned. To avoid the risk of fires and other emergencies, companies are often required by their insurance companies to temporarily replace their alarm system with a security officer. A few other instances requiring the same service include malfunctioning fire sprinklers, power loss, water supply shut down, or the presence of toxic or flammable materials.

Finding out your alarm system is down may feel like an emergency of its own.  But don’t panic, implementing an on-site officer is simple when you work with a locally managed security company like Twin City Security.  Our office is located in Stewartville with an employee base in Rochester and throughout SE Minnesota.

You can put our years of industry knowledge and professionally trained guards to work for one day, one week, or fill an on-going need. We provide around-the-clock services.  Fire watch security officers are equipped with in-depth knowledge of risk factors and fire watch procedures specific to your property. 

We understand, the thought of a fire, property damage, asset loss, or even casualties is stressful, and certainly something we all want to avoid.  Being prepared is the best way to help avoid catastrophe. Although you might not require fire watch services today - do you know if your business is prepared if the occasion arises?  

A gap in operations is the last thing any business wants.  Large property management companies, manufacturing plants, schools, hotels, and hospitals have documented emergency and business continuity plans to assure they are prepared for those ‘what if’ scenarios? It is best practice to pre-determine all service providers you may need to rely on in a moment's notice.  It’s as simple as adding the business names and phone numbers to your emergency plans that help take the headache out of scenarios like these.
