Pre-action Fire Suppression at Iron Mountain

Pre-action Fire Sprinkler System at Iron Mountain

Quick snapshot of the Pre-action Fire Suppression we installed at Iron Mountain in LA.

A pre-action fire sprinkler system is a type of fire sprinkler system that requires a two-step process in order to discharge. This type of specialized fire suppression system is typically used for locations where accidental discharge needs to be prevented due to highly valuable assets like rare art works, manuscripts, antiques, and data centers to protect computer equipment.

Iron Mountain specializes in data and records management for the entertainment industry for companies like Paramount Studios and Dreamworks where Iron Mountain also stores many of their valuable movie props and costumes in highly temperature and humidity controlled environments to preserve the integrity for future use like at museums, etc. There were some pretty cool costumes there used in movies like Kill Bill, The Gladiator, Top Gun, and many more movies we all know and love.
