Fire Alarm Companies Near Me in Oakland, CA
Fireside Security is a licensed C-10 fire alarm, UL-Listed monitoring, access control, and video contractor local to Oakland and Alameda County. Dispatched from our Hayward operations center.
Fireside Security serves Oakland from our Hayward office, delivering engineered commercial fire alarm, UL-Listed monitoring, access control, and video surveillance under a single C-10 license. Oakland's Class-A office, Port operations, and dense multifamily give us one of the most varied commercial slates in Northern California.
Oakland Fire Department Bureau of Fire Prevention 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. Oakland high-rise and Type-III multifamily each have their own life-safety cadence — we run both weekly.
Every Oakland 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 Oakland 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 Alameda County properties.

Do you pull fire alarm permits with the Oakland AHJ?
Yes. We prepare the plan-review submittal, coordinate with the Oakland fire authority and building department having jurisdiction, and attend the acceptance test so the system is signed off and inspection-ready.

Yes. Copper POTS lines are being retired, and we migrate Oakland fire alarm communicators, elevator phones, and gate entry systems to cellular or IP alarm transmission that meets NFPA 72 supervision requirements.
