Description
Fire Extinguisher Installation: Compliant To: BS 5306-8: 2012
Please Note: Fire extinguishers MUST be sited & fitted immediately following the commissioning of ANY NEW fire extinguisher..! This means, if you order fire extinguishers online & the company commissions them and YOU APPROVE, then the LAW will have been broken if they have not been sited & certificated to BS 5306-8:2012.
Failing this - it will be required you are then charged extra for a new commission or service certificate to validate the serviceability of fire extinguishers and then, can they be fully fitted & certificated by-law to the appropriate standards meeting Government Regulations & British Standards Guidelines.
All fire extinguishers are required to be suitably fire point sited.
All fire extinguishers are required to be suitably fitted where required.
This will ensure:
1. The fire extinguisher is fit for purpose.
2. The fire extinguisher is easily available.
3. The fire extinguisher is safe to use.
As part of the annual service, compliance to:
BS 5306-8: 2012 is also required to be met.
This basically means:
1. The fire extinguisher is fire point sited.
2. The fire extinguisher is fitted correctly.
3. The fire extinguisher is fitted at the correct height.
4. The fire extinguisher is fitted in the safest location.
Positioning & fitting extinguishers is a professional job.
The wrong location can actually put a user in harms way.
The wrong height can seriously injur a user or, anyone nearby.
Example:
An large organisations (public permitted site as entertainment venue), allowed fire extinguishers weighing over 14kg to be sited over 2 meters from the floor in a CRECHE/ NURSERY..!
After we advised to re-site to the LAW, we were advised that H&S had determined the children/ infants could tamper with the extinguishers, so they would remain sited too high.
We advised H&S that any unit falling from such a height could seriously injur or kill an infant.
We also provided images of ill fitting extinguishers currently fitted at such a height.
The initial installation works were conducted by a previous company & never challenged by others.
After 10 years of non-compliance, we were employed & helped rectify the situation.
H&S were naturally horrified to learn of the simple measures available to address the H&S issues.
They were also naturally pleased to be able to make the necessary changes - CONFIDANTLY..!
Siting & fitting extinguishers is an professional service - If you would like it done properly:
We charge: £ 8.50 per unit (Labour & BS Standards Compliance)
We charge: £1.50 per bracket (New Bracket) + Total @ £ 10.00
MG Fire Safety Group pride ourselves on our high service routines.
We will never conduct unauthorised works, but we will advise you.
