Fire Extinguisher Services
Fire extinguishers are the first line of defence in the event of a fire, offering occupants the means to control or suppress a blaze before it escalates. However, their effectiveness depends entirely on correct selection, proper installation, and regular, compliant servicing. Neglected or incorrectly specified extinguishers can fail precisely when they are needed most.
At Ironclad, we provide a fully managed fire extinguisher service — from initial risk assessment and supply through to annual servicing and extended maintenance. Our engineers are trained and accredited to BS 5306 standards, ensuring every extinguisher in your premises is compliant, operational, and correctly positioned.
