HOW DOES IT WORK?
In some cases, The fire marshal has ordered the building managers to obtain fire watch services, according to the regulations. In other cases, building owners proactively take the step to reduce their liability before receiving a visit from the fire marshall. Either way, the same procedure is followed by all our personnel when providing fire watch services.
Foot patrols are carried out by Firewatch patrol officers in the areas of your premises where faulty systems exist. The purpose of the patrols is to look for signs of potential fire hazards on the premises.

Answers to your fire watch questions for commercial and residential properties...
When is a professional Firewatch service legally required?
A professional Firewatch is typically required by the Fire Marshal or local ordinances whenever a building's fire alarm system or water-based fire protection system (sprinklers) is non-functional or undergoes a planned shutdown. This ensures the building remains occupied and compliant while repairs are being made.
What responsibilities do your Firewatch guards handle during a shift?
Our guards conduct continuous, manual patrols of every floor and area of the facility. They are responsible for:
Identifying smoke, fire, or other safety hazards.
Maintaining a detailed Firewatch Log (essential for Fire Marshal inspections).
Sounding the alarm and facilitating an evacuation if a fire is detected.
Coordinating immediately with the local fire department.
How does Ranger Security ensure compliance with local Fire Marshal standards?
Ranger Security officers are specifically trained in NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) standards and local codes in DC, Maryland, and Virginia. We provide the necessary documentation and round-the-clock monitoring required to avoid costly fines or "Stop Work" orders from local authorities.
