Fire Extinguisher Supply, Installation & Maintenance

Essential First-Line Defence for Your Workplace

In the event of a fire, a portable extinguisher is often the first thing people look for. While they are a standard fixture in any office or industrial unit, they are also a critical legal requirement. Under UK law, all non-domestic properties, including industrial, commercial, and retail sites must be equipped with suitable fire-fighting equipment that is maintained in optimum working condition.

At HF, we provide a comprehensive “cradle-to-grave” service for fire extinguishers. From initial site surveys and NSI Gold-standard installations to annual servicing and staff training, we ensure your business remains compliant and your people stay safe.

Strategic Site Surveys & Sourcing

Choosing the right extinguisher is not just about quantity; it is about the specific fire risks present in your building. A CO2 extinguisher is essential for electrical fires, while Foam or Water may be required for wood and paper.

Our expert team provides a Full Fire Extinguisher Survey to determine:

• Placement & Quantity: Ensuring every area of your premises is within the legal “travel distance” of an extinguisher.
• Fire Classification: Identifying the specific types of extinguishers (Water, Foam, CO2, Powder, or Wet Chemical) required for your unique environment.
• Signage & Mounting: Correctly installing safety signage and secure stands or cabinets to ensure equipment is visible and accessible.

Comprehensive Maintenance & Servicing

A fire extinguisher is only effective if it works the moment it is needed. We provide regular maintenance programmes in line with NSI Gold standards to ensure your equipment is always ready for action.

Our Service Capabilities Include:

• Annual Servicing & Inspection: Thorough mechanical checks of valves, hoses, and pressure gauges.
• Refilling & Recharging: Post-discharge servicing to restore your equipment to full capacity.
• Fire Blankets & Equipment: Supply and maintenance of fire blankets for kitchens and industrial workspaces.
• Asset Tracking: Detailed logging of every unit on your site to ensure a clear audit trail for fire authorities and insurers.

The best equipment in the world is useless if your staff are not confident in how to use it. HF Fire & Security offers professional On-Site Fire Training to empower your team.
