Online Fire Sprinkler Permit Application Instructions

Before You Begin

Please have the following ready before starting your application:

  • Site plan and project address
  • Scope of work details
  • Relevant fire sprinkler plans and supporting documents
  • Contractor and license information, if applicable

Step 1. Fire Sprinkler Permit Application Submission

The Beverly Hills Permit Center processes permit applications for fire sprinkler systems.

A Fire Sprinkler Permit is required before any installation, modification, repair, or removal of fire sprinkler systems may begin. This includes systems in new or existing buildings to ensure compliance with applicable safety codes and standards. Performing work without the required permit is prohibited and may result in penalties.

Per Beverly Hills Municipal Code Section 9-2-501, a permit is required for work involving:

  • Installation of new fire sprinkler systems
  • Alteration, extension, or modification of existing sprinkler systems
  • Repairs that impact system performance
  • Relocation or removal of sprinkler heads or related equipment

Ensure that all work complies with City regulations and inspection requirements. Click here to review Fire Sprinkler Design Guidelines and Submittal Requirements.

Please include your reference number if you contact staff with questions or need to provide clarification regarding your application. Permit staff can be reached by email at FDPermits@beverlyhills.org.
