The Bihn Approach

Fire Stations work, run with discipline.

Fire stations are mission-critical, mixed-use buildings: heavy apparatus bays, 24-hour crew quarters, gear and decontamination space, and the mechanical, electrical, and life-safety systems that have to work when seconds count.

Bihn Construction builds fire stations to code with the specialized coordination they demand. Drive-through bays get slabs sized for apparatus axle loads, trench drains and oil-water separators, and an apron graded for the turning radius the trucks need. Vehicle exhaust is captured at the source, station and bunk alerting is wired for a fast, safe turnout, and where the department runs it, traffic-signal preemption is coordinated at the apron. Because the station cannot go dark, we carry a standby generator and automatic transfer switch for continuous operation, and we detail the turnout-gear decontamination around a clean hot-zone and cold-zone separation with gear extractors and breathing-air fill.

We coordinate closely with the department on apparatus and operations throughout, and where the work replaces an active station, we phase it or stand up temporary quarters so the company stays in service. The result is a station built to perform under daily emergency response and to serve the crews who live and work in it.
