About Us

Brigade Fire Protection, Inc. was established in 1984 by Douglas Irvine in the basement of his home.  Through much hard work, diligence, and a commitment to quality, the company has grown to be one of the largest fire protection contractors in Michigan with offices in Belmont, MI and Traverse City, MI.  Since incorporation, Brigade has been family owned and operated with a very strong focus on employee and customer retention.

Companies turn to Brigade Fire Protection, Inc. for the finest in fire suppression systems.  We have built committed relationships with owners, construction managers, and architects through our ability to provide the best design and installation available.  Our diligent attention to detail throughout every phase of the project assures complete satisfaction upon completion.

Brigade is a full-service fire protection contractor, with full-time sales/estimating, design, fabrication, installation, and service departments.  This allows us to anticipate the needs of a project and maintain production schedules.  We believe that keeping all of our work in-house provides greater quality and cost control.

Whatever your fire protection needs, whether a new installation or retrofit, Brigade is prepared to utilize today’s technology to protect your future.  Our experience, systematic approach and commitment to excellence demand that you settle for nothing less!

We could always count on the Brigade for protection... We Still Can!
