Specially Trained To Identify Possible Hazard Areas
Firewatch can help out anywhere but they’re predominantly used for spaces where construction or renovation is taking place and the presence of tools and construction equipment creates an increased risk for fire. This is far from the only type of site they work with. Sometimes if there are repeated malfunctions in fire detection systems a city might require a building or business to hire a firewatch security guard to be a watchful eye and detect fires by hand. Often firewatch is assigned until the problem is solved. Depending on your location it could be quite beneficial to have a fire expert on hand to help with prevention. Firewatch is a niche in security but it’s one whose importance can not be overstated.
Prevent Fire Risks
Firewatch security is a necessity that many people still go without. Firewatch security is a guard that’s specially trained to identify possible hazard areas where a fire might be more likely and monitor them so that if a fire starts they can quickly either call emergency services or put out the fire themselves. Firewatch goes above and beyond the standard security requirements in making sure that you stay safe and that there’s no increased or unnecessary fire risk to you and your building or property.

An essential aspect of monitoring any location is ensuring that the monitoring equipment works and using that monitoring equipment to watch more of the premises in less time. There are also routine maintenance procedures that must be taken care of to keep everyone safe. Part of the surveillance check is performing this maintenance.
Building Check
Different parts of the building and property will be susceptible to different types of fire risk and it’s the job of firewatch security to assess these risks. During these inspections, they’ll also make sure that there are no points where risk is being taken unnecessarily. If there are then it’s the job of firewatch security to either fix the issue, report it, or monitor the area so that if a problem arises it can be dealt with quickly before it can cause any damage.

Firewatch Service FAQ
Firewatch security guards are a specialty branch of security guards that have been specially trained to deal with fires and are tasked with the prevention of fires throughout the property they’ve been assigned to protect. A traditional security guard may have a passing knowledge about how to stop fires and the steps to prevent them but nothing like the specialty knowledge that comes when a security guard is trained for firewatch. If you need firewatch security it’s always best to get firewatch security and not a traditional security guard to handle firewatch duties.
Like all of the guards on our team, detailed record keeping is a requirement. Should there be a situation when a hazard makes itself known and the problem can’t be solved during the shift then the firewatch guard will make and file a report detailing the hazard so that anyone who might need to know about the hazard can be made away of it. Our guards take pride in the quality and accuracy of their reports because a good report helps to keep everyone safe and secure.
Firewatch is rarely a permanent position. They are often brought in while fire systems are undergoing prolonged maintenance, or they’re malfunctioning repeatedly. They’ve also brought in when a building or property is undergoing some form of renovation or construction due to the increased risk for fire the catch in a construction zone. Often these positions are filled when they’re needed and then the guards will be moved to other locations that need firewatch security. You may have a need for permanent firewatch but it’s uncommon.
