Fire Extinguisher Options & Equipment
Portable & Wheeled Fire Extinguishers
Fire Extinguishers can be either handheld (portable) or cart-mounted (wheeled). Portable extinguishers are easily portable by hand and are used only in the early stages of a fire.
Wheeled extinguishers have a much larger volume and are capable of extinguishing a bigger fire. They’re heavy and multiple people are required to handle a wheeled extinguisher.
KORD Fire offers a wide selection of high-quality portable and wheeled fire extinguishers. Contact us to learn more.
Fire Extinguisher Cabinets
You’ll commonly find Fire Extinguisher Cabinets in busy locations (such as apartment buildings and retail spaces) or outdoor locations where the extinguisher is exposed to the elements.
The heavy-duty construction of the cabinet the extinguisher is housed in can make sure that the fire extinguisher doesn’t accidentally get discharged or damaged, but is easy to access in case of an emergency.
KORD Fire’s extensive service catalog of fire extinguisher storage contains a wide variety of high-quality brands and styles, including recessed and semi-recessed. Contact us for more information and custom options.
Fire Extinguisher Inspection and Service Requirements
Commercial fire extinguishers must be inspected, maintained, and documented at regular intervals. NFPA 10 requires portable fire extinguishers to be inspected when first installed and monthly after that, while OSHA requires employers to ensure portable fire extinguishers receive an annual maintenance check.
In California, portable fire extinguisher service must be performed by properly registered individuals, and California regulations require annual maintenance or service after use, when indicated by inspection, or at the time of hydrostatic testing.
