Fire extinguishers
We specialise in installing and commissioning fire extinguishers and fire blankets, recognising their critical role in safeguarding lives and property. Our priority is ensuring the correct types of extinguishers are placed in suitable locations and maintained in optimal condition.
The British Standard Code of Practice BS5306:3:2017 recommends that fire extinguishers be serviced at least once a year to guarantee their readiness in an emergency. However, this is merely a baseline. Your insurance provider, local authorities, or fire brigade may impose stricter requirements for high-risk environments. Regular servicing boosts compliance and ensures your fire safety equipment is ready when needed.
