about us
Safe-T-Systems Inc. is a business that was literally born out of sheer necessity.
After a career in Corporate Safety at some of the leading construction companies in the US, Add Kennon discovered the need for a simple yet sturdy solution that could be quickly, reliably and attractively put into place at the many workplace and construction sites he would visit.
The typical fire extinguisher stand he witnessed on projects was atrocious and unsafe homegrown solutions often involving a valuable laborers time. Fire extinguishers are required by workplace safety laws, and wanted by the workers themselves. Due to the stringent laws, Add Kennon felt the time for a proper, fully designed, yet clean and simple solution to problems like not being able to find the extinguisher when needed and grabbing an extinguisher and noticing it needs to be charged because some apprentice thought it would be funny to spray his apprentice buddy. What happens when your employees cannot quickly find a fire extinguisher? What if the one they do find has been discharged? The results can range from minor to catastrophic.
In their desire to comply with OSHA regulations, many companies use expensive, and time consuming internal resources to construct and place fire extinguishers and their related mounting devices. We have seen this activity range in cost from $10 to more than $125 (2x4 and plywood painted stands) by the time you include the cost of labor and materials. At the end of the project, these are not reusable and are always discarded, adding to the overall cost even more. Taking time to build ad-hoc stands for each project no longer makes sense. There is a better alternative.
Our Fire Guard portable fire extinguisher stand offers a low cost alternative featuring a uniform look, high visibility, easy set-up/tear-down, ease of storage for reuse, and many customization options to include company specific needs like logos, first aid kits, eye wash, safety equipment, water dispensers, and even emergency response rescue gear.
Fire Guard portable fire extinguisher stands, are patented (Patent Number: D503,832 and 5600927) and perfectly solve the common problem of not only placing but more importantly for worker safety, locating the fire extinguishers on job sites, project areas, and remote working environments.
Fire Guard fire extinguisher stands are approximately 43 inches in height with a 20in x 20in base, and can be bought in 2 cabinet sizes, which houses a standarD 10 lb, or 20 lb fire extinguisher. Cabinets are equipped with locks to prevent fire extinguisher theft. Fire extinguishers can also be included if needed.
