Fire Alarm Companies Near Me in Redwood City, CA

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

Fireside Security serves Redwood 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. Redwood City's Class-A office, biotech, and mixed-use residential make it the operational hub of our Peninsula practice.

Redwood City 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. This is our home market — same-day site surveys throughout the Peninsula are routine here.

Every Redwood 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.

Most Redwood City 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 San Mateo County properties.
