Fire Escape Painting
All our projects are hand scraped and painted. We can customize these to your liking: Priming, coats of paint etc...
All jobs can be customized as per clients requirements, coats of paint to be applied, quality of paint etc...

Fire Escape Fabrication/Install
We can replace an existing fire escape or fabricate and install a brand new one as per drawings. We also build ladders and catwalks and more.
If a drawing is needed we can also provide you with that.

FAQ
Q1: How often should a fire escape be inspected?
A: Inspection frequency depends on local requirements and building conditions. If your fire escape hasn’t been evaluated recently or shows rust, movement, or loose connections, schedule a professional inspection before violations are issued.
​
Q2: What do inspectors look for on fire escapes?
A: Anchors and brackets at the wall, connection integrity (bolts/welds/rivets), corrosion and metal loss, platform and stair stability, railings, and safe egress conditions.
​
Q3: Can you certify a fire escape that has rust?
A: Surface rust may be manageable, but corrosion at connections, supports, or anchors often requires repair before certification. A compliance-first inspection identifies what’s cosmetic vs structural.
​
Q4: Is painting enough to fix a fire escape?
A: Not if rust is active or steel has thinned. Proper repair and surface preparation come first—otherwise paint can hide ongoing deterioration and lead to repeat violations.
​
Q5: Do you handle violations and deadlines?
A: Yes. We help owners and managers respond to citations with clear documentation, repair scope, and a plan designed to meet inspector expectations.
