LIFE SAFETY, SECURITY, & COMMUNICATIONS SINCE 1973
FEATURED SOLUTIONS
Gallaher & Associates, Inc. began with the vision of Roy Gallaher, who had worked as a manufacturer rep in the electrical industry. He took a leap of faith to start a business in 1973 to sell, install, and service fire alarm and other systems, with no assurance of success or reward and a young family to provide for. With the good fortune of a few high-profile projects such as the 1982 World's Fair in Knoxville, the company began to earn a reputation for quality work at a reasonable price, while earning the trust of clients that they would be taken care of along the way. Roy's son Tom became CEO in 2010, as the next generation of leadership.
Today, Gallaher is the region's premier life safety systems provider with three Tennessee locations, offering service to surrounding states and recently managed projects around the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

WHY LIFE SAFETY?
PEOPLE PROTECTION
Life safety systems prioritize the safety and well-being of people within the business environment, including employees, customers, and visitors, by providing early detection and efficient evacuation procedures during emergencies.
PROFITABILITY OPTIMIZATION
Investing in life safety systems is not just a cost but a strategic investment that can prevent significant financial losses associated with property damage, legal liabilities, and business interruptions, thereby safeguarding profitability.
PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT
Implementing robust life safety systems demonstrates a commitment to high standards of performance, enhancing the reputation of the business and instilling confidence in stakeholders, including customers, investors, and regulatory bodies.
PROPERTY PRESERVATION
These systems help safeguard valuable assets, including physical infrastructure, equipment, and inventory, minimizing the risk of damage or destruction caused by fire, theft, or other hazards.
PROACTIVE APPROACH
Life safety systems encourage a proactive approach to risk management, empowering businesses to identify potential hazards, develop emergency response plans, and continuously improve safety protocols to adapt to evolving threats.
PARTNERSHIP BUILDING
Compliance with safety regulations and the implementation of effective life safety systems foster positive relationships with regulatory agencies, insurance providers, and other stakeholders, facilitating smoother operations and potentially reducing insurance premiums.
PRODUCTIVITY ENHANCEMENT
By reducing the occurrence of emergencies and minimizing downtime, life safety systems contribute to the continuity of operations, ensuring uninterrupted workflow and optimal productivity levels.
PREVENTATIVE MEASURES
Beyond reactive responses, these systems incorporate preventive measures such as regular maintenance, inspections, and employee training, which help identify and address potential risks before they escalate into emergencies.
PUBLIC RELATIONS
Communicating the presence of comprehensive life safety systems through marketing and public relations efforts can enhance the brand image of the business, portraying it as a responsible corporate citizen that prioritizes the safety and well-being of its community.
