Retrofit solutions for aging fire alarm systems
Cantec provides coordinated retrofit solutions for buildings with outdated fire alarm systems that no longer meet modern requirements.
From planning and engineering coordination to installation, verification, and final approvals, our team helps guide projects through every stage.

Complete retrofit project coordination
Retrofit projects often involve occupied buildings, aging infrastructure, tenant coordination, and evolving code requirements. Cantec acts as the central point of coordination to help simplify complex fire alarm upgrades.
Older fire alarm systems can become difficult to maintain, unreliable, or incompatible with modern building requirements.
Engineering and planning
Coordination with engineers, contractors, and building management teams.
Tenant communication and scheduling
Planning and communication to help minimize disruption within occupied buildings.
Installation and verification
Full coordination through installation, programming, verification, and approvals.
Finishing and concealment solutions
Solutions such as crown moulding to help conceal retrofit wiring where required.
Occupied buildings require careful coordination
Retrofits often involve work inside active residential and commercial buildings. Our team works closely with property managers, tenants, contractors, and engineers to help keep projects organized, compliant, and moving forward.
