Fire Alarm Systems
Code compliant protection for Georgia facilities designed, installed, and serviced by Frazier with Siemens technology
Frazier Service Company delivers turnkey fire alarm solutions for commercial buildings across Georgia. As your local design–build–service partner, we engineer systems around your building’s risks, occupancy, and compliance requirements—then keep them reliable with proactive inspection, testing, and maintenance.
Performance-based or prescriptive designs, device layout, voltage drop and battery sizing, sequence of operations, shop drawings, submittals, and AHJ coordination—optimized for Siemens Cerberus® PRO and Desigo® Fire Safety platforms.
Addressable control panels, intelligent detectors, modules, strobes/speakers, voice evacuation / mass notification, area of refuge, elevator recall, releasing (where applicable), and integration to BAS for supervisory and dashboards.
Recurring ITM per NFPA 72 and manufacturer guidance, including functional testing, detector sensitivity verification, notification appliance checks, batteries, and documentation for compliance. Full annual test as standard, with interim checks as required.
Priority response, parts and repairs, impairment support, and coordination with your supervising station for signals, trouble, and dispatch.

What does a fire alarm system consist of?
A typical system includes control panels, power supplies, addressable detectors/initiating devices (smoke, heat, pull stations, waterflow/tamper), notification appliances (horns, strobes, speakers for voice), control/monitor modules, annunciation, and communications to a supervising station—all installed and programmed to a documented sequence of operations.
What are the types of fire alarm systems?
Two primary architectures: conventional (zoned wiring, better for small/simple buildings) and addressable (each device has an address for faster pinpointing and scalable networking). Siemens provides both, including Cerberus PRO and Desigo Fire Safety addressable portfolios.
How often should a fire alarm system be tested?
Follow NFPA 72 and AHJ requirements. Most facilities perform a comprehensive annual test with interim (monthly/quarterly) checks on specific components (batteries, notification appliances, etc.). Frazier sets your schedule to meet code, manufacturer specs, and insurance needs.
When are fire alarm systems required?
Requirements come from your adopted building and fire codes (IBC/IFC as amended by Georgia) and local AHJ. Examples include most commercial occupancies, education, assembly, healthcare, multi-unit residential, and special hazards. Frazier confirms applicability during the code review phase and designs accordingly. (Georgia rulemaking references NFPA 72 for fire alarm systems.)
What is a central fire alarm system?
Often used to describe a system connected to a central (supervising) station that monitors alarm, trouble, and supervisory signals and dispatches responders. Your panel communicates via listed pathways (e.g., cellular/IP). Siemens platforms support these communications and detailed event reporting.
