Garland Fire Code Requirements
The City of Garland enforces the International Fire Code (IFC) with local amendments through the Garland Fire Department. As one of the largest cities in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area and a major industrial and manufacturing hub, Garland oversees a commercial landscape spanning significant manufacturing and industrial operations in the Garland Industrial Park along Miller Road and Shiloh Road, large retail corridors along I-30 and Beltline Road, and the growing mixed-use development around the DART rail corridor.
Garland's manufacturing sector — one of the largest concentrations of industrial facilities in the Dallas metro — creates fire protection compliance obligations at scale. Metal fabrication, plastics manufacturing, electronics assembly, and food processing operations all carry specific fire protection requirements beyond standard commercial buildings. Garland's large Vietnamese and Asian-American community has also created a concentration of restaurants and commercial kitchens in the International District along Walnut Street that require semi-annual NFPA 96 kitchen suppression compliance.

Metal fabrication, welding operations, flammable liquid storage, and spray finishing areas all carry specific suppression, ventilation, and extinguisher requirements. High-piled storage in manufacturing areas triggers NFPA 13 high-storage suppression requirements. A licensed fire protection engineer should assess your specific manufacturing processes and classify hazard levels correctly.
