Buying Parts From Us
Help! I can't find the part I want…
Our huge inventory and searchable catalog makes it easy to find the part you need!
You can search our catalog one of two ways:
- Use the search bar in the upper right corner of this page. Simply start typing the brand name, part or model number, and matching results will be displayed. The more information you enter, the better!
- Select ‘Browse by Brand’ or ‘Browse by Type’ and then use the navigation on the left hand side of the page to narrow your search even further.
Still no luck?
We’re happy to help. Open a new ticket (to the right), giving us as much information as possible (including the brand, part number, description, and quantity needed). We’ll get back to you within 1-2 business days.
Is My Purchase Covered by a Warranty?
All of our products are covered by our 90-day hassle-free returns warranty.
How is My Order Shipped?
Buy Fire Alarm Parts uses UPS to ship all our orders. We like UPS because they're reliable and affordable. We offer all available options from UPS, from Ground to Next Day Air - Early AM.
We ship all orders as soon as possible, with most orders placed prior to 3 pm EST shipped out on the same day.
Will Refurbished and 'Not New' Parts Work Like New?
Any product that is 'not new in a box' goes through a rigorous 7-step quality-control process covering areas of appearance, control function, zone supervision, ground fault, batteries supervision, power output and the dialer.
Tested parts are then tagged with the date, the person who completed the quality control process and the test passed.
Our parts and devices are also covered by our 90-day hassle-free returns warranty.
Please note: All parts should be installed and tested by a certified fire alarm company.
How Do I Return an Order or Process an Exchange?
We understand that sometimes you need to cancel your order, and so we've made it easy.
To cancel your shipment on the same day before 3 pm, call us at 888-303-2656.
The parts must be in original purchased condition and a 10% restocking fee may apply.
If you need an exchange or a replacement part, we will send it to you right away (allowing for normal processing time) and provide you with a UPS return label.
To get started, open a new ticket (to the right), email us at [email protected] or give us a call at 888-303-2656. Provide us with the details of your order so we can get straight to work helping you.
Do You Ship Internationally?
Yes! We use GlobalShopex, a third-party company, to ship products to international destinations. The GlobalShopex shipping process is automatically initiated once you select a country on our checkout page. We take care of the rest!

Repairs
Do You Repair Broken or Damaged Fire Alarm Equipment?
Sometimes you don’t need (or want) a brand new control panel; you just need yours repaired. Our workshop repairs are fast and reliable—just like new!
While the repair time and cost are determined based on the condition of the board, most repairs are completed within 1-3 hours.
Repairs are $350 for the first hour and $100 per hour thereafter (prices are per board). Repair rates include all parts and labor, unless specific parts are required. Then rates are finalized when the repair is complete. If we cannot repair your equipment, you’ll pay only for the return shipping.
Typically, our repair turnaround time is 5-7 business days. Our priority repair service has a turnaround time of 1-3 days. Priority service fee is $150 per board.
