Fire Alarm Companies Near Me in Modesto, CA

Fireside Security is a licensed C-10 fire alarm, UL-Listed monitoring, access control, and video contractor local to Modesto and Stanislaus County. Dispatched from our Hayward operations center.

Fireside Security serves Modesto from our Hayward office, delivering engineered commercial fire alarm, UL-Listed monitoring, access control, and video surveillance under a single C-10 license. Modesto's food and beverage processing, healthcare, and distribution create heavy-hazard commercial scope typical of the Central Valley spine.

Modesto Fire Department 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. Food-plant clean-in-place areas, ammonia refrigeration interface, and monitored suppression are recurring scope items.

Every Modesto 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.

Most Modesto projects start with commercial fire alarm installation and typically fold in fire alarm inspection & testing, 24/7 ul listed fire alarm monitoring, and commercial access control systems for Stanislaus County properties.
