Life Safety & Specialty


Hayward has been a pioneer in the Life Safety systems market creating and implementing one of the first inspection and testing programs in the area. We have a team devoted to the special needs and requirements of Life Safety devices housed in buildings. Our experience and capable technicians enable us to provide design, testing and maintenance of such systems. As a member of the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) we are on the cutting edge of new advancements in technology and practices to ensure our clients are receiving the most up to date information and services available. We currently work with numerous local healthcare and institutional organizations to ensure that their facilities meet IDPH and JCAHO code requirements.

Hayward has always been the “Go to” contractor when unique and complex situations arise. Our proven track record and consultative approach to these projects has solidified us as “Preferred Contractor” for specialty and life safety work. At Hayward, we pride ourselves in knowing that we excel where others fail and welcome the challenge of any project no matter the size or complexity.
