Choosing fire protection equipment
Start with the risk you are protecting against, because that sets the extinguisher type and size. ABE dry chemical extinguishers are a general-purpose choice for workshops, warehouses and vehicles. CO2 extinguishers are commonly chosen for electrical equipment because they leave no residue. A fire blanket suits small fires and wrapping a person, and it sits well alongside an extinguisher near a hot work or kitchen area. Fit brackets, cabinets and identification signs so the equipment can be found and reached quickly.
Hose, kits and hydrant fittings are a separate buying decision. Landing valves and caps differ by state fitting, so check the fitting type and thread on the variant against your system before ordering, and call us if you are matching an existing installation.
The right extinguishers, blankets and hose for your site come from your fire risk assessment, your fire safety adviser or the building's fire safety requirements and the Australian Standards that apply. Extinguishers also need regular inspection and servicing by a qualified provider, so ask yours what they require.
Always check the data sheet. Confirm the ratings, size and fittings of each product against your requirements before relying on it.

Fire protection FAQs

What fire blanket sizes do you have?
We list blankets from 1 x 1 m up to 1.8 x 1.8 m across MegaFire, Trafalgar and Dixon, plus a 1.8 x 1.8 m Frontier Flamezone leather blanket. Check the variant sizes on each product page.
Do fire extinguishers need servicing?
Yes. Extinguishers need regular inspection and servicing by a qualified provider. Ask your provider what is required for your site.

Yes. We list Dixon layflat fire hose in a range of diameters, fire reel hose, fire hose kits, a spray nozzle, and hydrant landing valves and caps for NSW, VIC, QLD and WA fittings, plus an AAP spring hydrant valve.
How do I choose a hydrant landing valve?
