At Nash, we provide comprehensive fire safety construction solutions across the United States, protecting lives and property through expert fire protection system installations and code-compliant building designs. As licensed fire safety contractors, we specialize in fire-rated assemblies, emergency egress systems, and active fire suppression installations for commercial, industrial, and multi-family projects. Our integrated approach combines preconstruction fire safety planning with precision installations to deliver buildings that exceed NFPA standards and local fire codes.
Modern construction demands life safety systems that actively prevent fire spread and facilitate safe evacuations. At Nash, we understand that effective fire protection construction requires compartmentalization strategies, proper material selections, and systems integration. Our team stays current with evolving International Fire Code (IFC) requirements, NFPA 101 Life Safety Code, and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) egress standards. Whether for high-rise buildings, healthcare facilities, or industrial plants, we implement defense-in-depth fire protection strategies tailored to each facility’s unique risks and occupancy requirements.
Nash implements a rigorous fire protection installation methodology that ensures complete code compliance. We begin with fire safety gap analyses during design development to identify potential vulnerabilities. Our firestop specialists then coordinate with MEP trades to maintain fire barrier integrity throughout construction. The process includes fire-rated wall assemblies, smoke control system installations, and egress path verification before occupancy. We conduct third-party firestop inspections and system performance testing to validate all installations meet UL certification standards and manufacturer specifications.
Effective life safety construction incorporates both passive and active protection measures. Nash specializes in installing fire sprinkler systems (wet, dry, and pre-action), fire alarm and mass notification systems, and smoke evacuation systems. Our fireproofing contractors apply intumescent coatings to structural steel and construct fire-rated shaft enclosures for elevators and utilities. We implement fire-resistant glazing systems, fire door assemblies, and emergency lighting installations to complete comprehensive protection. All systems integrate with building automation systems for centralized monitoring and control.
Different facilities demand tailored fire protection approaches. For healthcare construction, we implement hospital-grade fire barriers and defend-in-place strategies. High-rise projects require stairwell pressurization systems and firefighter elevator controls. Our industrial fire protection expertise includes flammable liquid storage solutions and explosion suppression systems. Residential projects benefit from our dwelling unit separation walls and corridor protection systems. Nash maintains specialized certifications for clean agent suppression systems, kitchen hood fire suppression, and hazardous material storage protections to address unique sector requirements.
Nash stands apart in fire protection contracting through our in-house NICET-certified staff and UL-listed firestop program. Our team includes fire protection engineers who collaborate directly with construction crews to ensure proper implementation. We maintain FM Global approval for our installation methods and manufacturer certifications for all major fire safety products. With experience across mission-critical facilities, historic renovations, and complex retrofits, we solve challenging fire safety coordination issues that others overlook. Our documentation practices provide complete as-built records and operation manuals for facility managers.
Existing buildings often require fire protection modernization to meet current codes or address new risks. Nash specializes in fire sprinkler retrofits, egress system improvements, and fire barrier remediation. We expertly handle occupied building upgrades with minimal disruption through phased implementations and after-hours work. Our fire door replacement programs bring older facilities into compliance, while fire alarm system migrations update obsolete technology. For building repurposing projects, we conduct fire safety evaluations and implement necessary compartmentation strategies to accommodate new occupancies safely.
Fire sprinklers are a critical safety feature that can protect your property, save lives, and reduce damage in case of a fire.
