When code requires a fire watch
Sprinkler or fire-alarm impairment beyond the code threshold (commonly four hours, set by your local code), hot work under permit, construction and demolition phases without active systems, special events over occupancy limits, and any time your fire marshal orders one. The requirement usually arrives with zero warning — a failed inspection, a contractor hit a line, a panel died — and the clock starts immediately. SECURICO fire watch mobilizes in hours, around the clock, every day of the year.
What the officer actually does
Continuous patrols of the affected areas on the frequency your jurisdiction requires (typically every 15 to 60 minutes), watching for fire, smoke and hazards; maintaining working knowledge of extinguisher, panel, hydrant and exit locations; keeping egress clear; and holding one non-negotiable duty above all others — immediate fire department notification if anything ignites, before any attempt at suppression. Fire watch officers carry no other duties while the watch is active; that single-focus rule is what your AHJ checks first.
How SECURICO runs it
The log is the deliverable
Every round is recorded with time-stamps, areas covered, observations and officer identification. When your marshal, building department or insurance carrier asks for proof the watch ran, you hand them a complete, legible, AHJ-ready log — not a promise. Digital copies land in your SECURICO app feed daily.
Until your system is back
Fire watch runs until repairs are verified and the marshal releases the requirement — one night, a week, or the length of a construction phase. Billing follows the actual impairment window: no minimum contract, no charge past the release. When the impairment is planned (system upgrades, tenant improvements, hot work), schedule the watch with the work and the coverage is seamless.
What fire watch costs
Fire watch starts at $45 per hour, with emergency same-day starts carrying a modest mobilization premium. The real number to compare against: citation exposure, forced closure of the building, and what your insurance carrier does with an uncovered impairment on file. The instant quote prices your dates now; for immediate need, call (310) 209-8119 and dispatch starts the clock.
Verified, not promised
Every patrol runs on GPS-verified routes with time-stamped checkpoints. Rounds either happened or they did not — and the trail settles it, every shift.
Watch it happen from your phone
Reports, photos, audits and shift changes stream into the SECURICO app in real time. No Friday summary, no paper binder — the post, live.
The difference, measured
Deployment in hours instead of weeks. Live reporting instead of a weekly email. Supervision that never clocks out. That is the gap between SECURICO and the provider you are probably replacing.
