About Crawford Sprinkler

Why Choose Us?

Crawford Sprinkler Company is proud to be one of America’s oldest Fire Sprinkler Companies.

Crawford Sprinkler was established in Atlanta, Georgia on January 1, 1920. Upon expansion, the company soon branched to several cities by the 1930s.

The South Carolina office, established in 1965, was a branch of the Crawford Sprinkler in Charlotte. In 1971, Wm. S. Phifer, Jr. (son-in-law of D.B. Crawford) purchased the majority stock in the South Carolina branch after being a 25-year employee for the company. He ran the business for another 34 years until turning over control of the company to his children in 1999.

Management and ownership still remain in the Phifer family (grandchildren of its founder D.B. Crawford) as Crawford Sprinkler continues to provide quality fire sprinkler systems, as we have for the past 95+ years. Having been family-owned and operated for more than 90 years makes us the oldest continuously family-operated fire sprinkler contractor in America, or quite possibly the world.
