Installation of Fire Extinguishers

We are qualified to install portable fire extinguishers, fire blankets and relevant signage in your premises. Extinguishers are one of the first pieces of equipment that you can use to fight fires. It is a common misconception that portable fire extinguishers bought on the internet are ready for use.

All fire extinguishers wherever they are purchased from require commissioning before they are deemed fit for purpose. If you have online purchased extinguishers and have not been given commissioning paperwork, TPS offer a certification service.
