Immediate First-Aid Firefighting for Building Occupants
The
Single Door Fire Hose Reel Cabinet is a crucial component of a building's internal firefighting system. Designed for easy access and operation by trained occupants, it provides a reliable and controlled supply of water to tackle a Class A fire in its early stages before the arrival of the fire department. The cabinet houses a pre-connected hose reel, ready for instant deployment.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Ready-to-Use Deployment: Features a pre-wound, high-pressure reinforced rubber hose (30m standard) on a swivel reel, allowing smooth, tangle-free payout.
- High-Visibility Cabinet: Constructed from powder-coated mild steel in standard fire-red finish with a clear, tempered glass door for quick visual inspection.
- Integrated Water Control: Includes a quarter-turn ball valve or gate valve for immediate water flow control directly at the cabinet.
- Professional Nozzle: Comes with a shut-off type brass nozzle that allows the operator to control water flow from a jet to a spray pattern.
- Durable & Secure: Robust construction with a lockable door (break-glass or key lock) to prevent unauthorized use or vandalism.
- Complete Assembly: Supplied as a complete kit with cabinet, reel, hose, nozzle, valve, and mounting brackets for straightforward installation.
Installation & Use:
This cabinet is typically connected to the building's dedicated fire water riser or mains supply. It is installed at accessible locations along escape routes, in corridors, and on each floor as per local fire codes (e.g., NFPA, SLS). In an emergency, an occupant breaks the glass/open the door, unreels the hose to the fire, turns the valve on, and directs the water jet.
