Interestingly enough, when an establishment invests in fire safety one stocks up enough fire extinguishes & fire blankets then proceeds to install a network of smoke detectors, sprinklers and a good number of fire safety signs to boot. Of course, there are less known methods of fire safety but certainly quite effective in their own right - one such example is the use of intumescent-based fire safety devices such as intumescent strips.

The title needs very little explanation, come to think about it. And yet, the need for a fire alarm system in commercial districts cannot be overemphasized - and there are several reasons for this. First of all, the safety of the residents within a commercial setting depends largely on how fast people can respond to an emergency. Secondly, the local fire station definitely needs to be informed as soon as possible in case professional help is...more
In any establishment, fire exits that are safely locked on normal days, yet easy to open in the case of emergencies is vastly essential. Thankfully, gone are the days of using a "glass breakable" tool which is at often times unsafe especially when accidentally opened by children. Nowadays, the use of ceramic panic bolts is becoming more and more widespread. The panic bolt also called the panic bar is a tube that covers an emergency exit door from the interior. The two main functions of a panic bolt are first, to make sure that an exit in an emergency situation, in particular fires and earthquakes are easy - usually with a built in mechanism of "break in case of emergency" to open the door to a safe exit. Second, to make sure that while breaking out is easy, breaking in through the door would be pretty much impossible since the breaking mechanism comes from the interior. Panic bolts are then particularly helpful in power outages in which residents of an establishment will need to use the stairways to safely vacate the premises. There are several factors that make a panic bolt more applicable and convenient for use in establishment's emergency exits. First of all, it is quite easy to...more

Among the different types of fire extinguishers, the CO2 fire extinguisher is perhaps the most versatile and therefore the most commonly used type of fire extinguisher - able to deliver in a good number of fire emergency situations, readily available in fire safety supply distributors and relatively affordable for a one time payment for one's safety. While a CO2 extinguisher can be used for the majority of most domestic and commercial fires, make sure that you obtain the right kind of fire extinguisher suitable for your home or establishment.Different types of fire extinguishers carry different chemical compositions and are therefore used in different situations & applications. So why choose a CO2 fire extinguisher over other types? Well a very good reason is in modern man's growing reliance on technology and therefore electronics. This type of fire extinguisher unlike a water based or foam based extinguisher, can effectively put out a flaming electric generator. At the same time, CO2 extinguishers can also put out minor flaming pieces of cloth, carpet or curtain which commonly get caught in fires at home and petroleum products such as crawling flame from car gas leaks.If the time...more
