Pye-Barker Fire & Safety has acquired Fire Alarm Services (FAS), Inc. in Arvada, Colorado. The purchase was finalised in March and expands Pye-Barker Fire’s service capabilities across the state.

FAS is a full-service fire protection company that has established a strong presence over its 20 years in business. With 140 employees at the time of the acquisition, FAS covers the state’s major regions, including the Denver metropolitan, Northern Colorado, the Central and Plains areas, and the Rocky Mountains. Through the integration of FAS into the team, Pye-Barker Fire will be able to expand its fire alarm and fire sprinkler services across the state.

FAS was owned and operated by its founders, husband and wife team Shannon and Connie Smith. Although Connie is retiring, Shannon will remain on as Regional Manager to keep leading his team to continued success.

“We are now excited to become part of the Pye-Barker Fire family, who truly understands the importance of the long-term relationships we have built with our customers and employees,” shared Shannon. “Together we look forward to continued success and growth with a new and exciting partnership.”
