What Daly City owners should know about fire alarm installation
In Daly City, fire alarm installation work usually starts from a tenant improvement, a change of occupancy, a failed inspection, or a panel that has run out of parts and support. What we perform is consistent: occupancy review and device layout, stamped plans for permit, licensed installation, pre-test, and attendance at the acceptance test with the turnover package. Our San Mateo operations base carries Daly City on its service map.
Local demand in Daly City comes mainly from hospitality and retail, plus healthcare and medical office owners, and that drives the fire alarm installation specifics: guest-area notification, kitchen hood interface, and after-hours install windows; occupied-facility phasing so patient areas never lose life-safety coverage.
For anything requiring sign-off in Daly City, North County Fire Authority is the reviewing authority. Every Daly City address falls in San Mateo County, and our coverage includes Serramonte, Westlake and Bayshore.
Working in Daly City
Fireside Security serves Daly City from our San Mateo office, delivering engineered commercial fire alarm, UL-Listed monitoring, access control, and video surveillance under a single C-10 license. Daly City's retail centers, healthcare, and dense multifamily along the SF border need life-safety upgrades tuned to older building stock.
North County Fire Authority sets the local plan-review and inspection cadence, and our project managers work with it directly — stamped submittals, coordinated shop drawings, and acceptance tests that pass on the first walk. Retrofit-friendly wireless mesh alarm and phased panel migration keep sites operating while we upgrade.
Every Daly City project is monitored from our UL-Listed central station with LTE-M cellular paths, so your life-safety signaling doesn't depend on the copper POTS lines being retired in 2026.

Daly City FAQ
Who reviews fire alarm plans for a project in Daly City?
Plan review and the acceptance test are handled by the fire authority and building department having jurisdiction over your Daly City address — locally that is North County Fire Authority. We prepare the submittal, respond to review comments, and attend the test.
Are you licensed to install fire alarm systems in Daly City?
Yes. Fireside Security holds California C-10 license #978023 and alarm company operator license ACO #7133, which covers commercial fire alarm work throughout San Mateo County.
Can you install in an occupied Daly City building?
Yes. We phase occupied-building work so life-safety coverage is maintained during the transition, and schedule disruptive steps outside your operating hours where the building requires it.
What do we receive at turnover?
As-builts, a device inventory, the sequence of operation, test records, and the maintenance schedule — the documentation set your Daly City inspector and your records file both need.
Do you pull fire alarm permits with the Daly City AHJ?
Yes. We prepare the plan-review submittal, coordinate with the Daly City fire authority and building department having jurisdiction, and attend the acceptance test so the system is signed off and inspection-ready.
Can you combine access control and video surveillance with fire alarm in Daly City?
Yes. Under one contract we install access control and video alongside fire alarm for Daly City and San Mateo County properties — Fireside holds an alarm company operator license (ACO #7133) in addition to the C-10.
