Tender: Meridian Arts Centre Fire Alarm System Upgrade – 5040 Yonge Street, Toronto
Released about 2 months ago
About
Corporate Real Estate Management is seeking a supplier for the Meridian Arts Centre fire alarm system upgrade at 5040 Yonge Street, Toronto. The work includes relocating the fire alarm sub-panel from the Stage Door ground level to the basement electrical room, replacing bell-only notification devices with strobes and speakers throughout the facility, relocating or replacing pull stations to two-stage devices with integrated key switches per TADG and installing at required heights, installing a new intercom/voice communication system with amplifier at the Stage Door, programming bypass functionality for George Weston, Lyric, Studio and Greenwin Theatres (and adjacent corridors) with an annunciator at the Stage Door, reprogramming the fire work graphic and updating digital plan drawings, installing new batteries sized for the upgraded system, extending wiring while retaining existing detection and supervisory connections, repairing and making-good finishes after demolition, and providing required testing including fire alarm verification, audibility testing and smoke and haze testing (with TO Live staff assisting with the smoke machine) and other tests noted in the specifications. A mandatory site meeting is required at 10:00 AM local time on September 18, 2026 at 5040 Yonge Street, Toronto; suppliers must sign the attendance sheet at that meeting or their bids will be declared non-compliant.
This tender is likely valuable to contractors experienced in commercial fire alarm system upgrades, voice evacuation/intercom systems and theatre venue systems. Key considerations include the mandatory site meeting on September 18, 2026 (attendance is required for bid compliance), the need to reprogram graphics and update digital plans, extending wiring and relocating the sub-panel where existing millwork obstructs access, and coordinating smoke/haze testing with TO Live staff and making-good finishes to the owner's satisfaction.
