Discover the benefits of choosing us

Oregon fire code requires fire escapes to be inspected and load tested on a regular schedule. Our certified team tests fire escapes on apartments, commercial buildings and historic properties across Portland, verifying every ladder, landing and connection so your building stays safe and compliant. Because we’re a construction company that performs both the testing and any needed repairs in-house, our quotes are contractor-direct and itemized — with no subcontractor markup layered into the repair work.

Engineer-Certified Load Testing

We perform static load testing and structural verification to confirm your fire escape can safely carry the required weight, and document the results for city compliance.
