PROVIDING FIRE WATCH SERVICES IN LEE COUNTY
PLANCHER SECURITY has provided Fire Watch services totaling more than 120,000 contracted hours. In Lee County, every assignment starts with the same essential step: verifying which fire official has authority over the specific address. We then assign additional Officers without competing responsibilities, maintain uninterrupted foot patrols throughout the affected area, and keep a written log in real time. That log is submitted as the record designed to protect the client from a fine.
Our service extends across the entire county, not just one city, which is important for an owner or manager responsible for properties in Fort Myers, Cape Coral, and the two districts between them. Clients receive one provider, one standard, one log format, and the proper notification delivered to the appropriate office for each address. When necessary, coverage can begin in under 60 minutes, and a single overnight impairment receives the same standard as a months-long assignment at a property under reconstruction.
We stay involved through the close of the assignment as well. Coverage concludes only after the system has been restored and signed off, so restoration and inspection dates remain visible to the client from the first day.
FIRE WATCH SECURITY SERVICES
Fire watch security services employ trained guards to monitor areas at risk for fire hazards when fire alarms sprinkler systems fail. These services are crucial during construction and high-risk activities, reassurance for homeowners and businesses. Plancher Security Fire Watch personnel specialize in fire code compliance, conducting risk assessments and supervising “Hot Work” to protect your property from potential fire damage.
WHY HIRE A FIRE WATCH SECURITY COMPANY?
Violating OSHA safety regulations - even unintentionally can lead to costly fines and shutdowns. Professional fire watch guards check for fire hazards and notify decisionmakers so they can take appropriate action. Most importantly, fire watch security guards ensure fire code compliance during periods of heightened risk, safeguarding personnel and property on site.
WHEN ARE FIRE WATCH SERVICES NEEDED?
Fire watch security guards are required on-site when built-in fire safety systems go offline, or when “Hot Work” such as welding or brazing is done without industrial safety systems present. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires the presence of fire watchers in situations that pose a higher fire risk.
