Grocery store, florist, clothing boutique, hardware shop, pet store, garden center, pool and spa retailer… If you own a business in Montreal, Laval, or on the South Shore, you know that safety is a top priority.

At Guard-X, we emphasize the importance of regularly inspecting your fire protection equipment to safeguard your employees, customers, property, and inventory.

Why Inspect Your Fire Safety System?

It’s simple: fire alarms save lives. Sprinklers slow the spread of flames and smoke, reducing material losses, injuries, and downtime.

But for fire protection equipment to be effective, it must be 100% functional at all times. A professional inspection is the only reliable way to ensure this.

And don’t forget: most insurance companies require proof of periodic inspections to process a claim. Better safe than sorry.

What Does a Professional Fire Safety Inspection Include?

At Guard-X Protection incendie, we inspect every component of your system, including:

  • Fire alarms
  • Sprinkler systems
  • Portable fire extinguishers
  • Emergency signage and lighting
  • Gas detectors

Our certified technicians check each part in accordance with Quebec’s Safety Code (CBCS) standards:

  • Functionality of alarm panels, manual pull stations, and heat detectors
  • Placement, accessibility, and pressure levels of extinguishers
  • Condition and compliance of sprinkler systems and connected alarms
  • Visibility and clarity of safety instructions

At the end of the visit, you’ll receive a detailed inspection report.

Annual inspection: extinguishers and sprinklers
