Fire Safety Add-Ons for Shanties: Buckeye Extinguishers & More

A compliant shanty is only part of the safety equation. The right fire protection equipment inside the unit is just as important.

Essential Fire Safety Add-Ons

  • Buckeye 20 lb ABC Automatic Fire Extinguisher: Designed for construction environments and commonly used in shanties. Includes mounting bracket and first-year inspection tag options.
  • Smoke Alarms: Early detection is critical in temporary structures. FDNY-approved units provide an important layer of protection.
  • Proper Placement: Extinguishers should be easily accessible and mounted according to site requirements.

Why These Add-Ons Matter

Even a non-combustible shanty can contain combustible materials (paper, clothing, equipment). Having the correct extinguisher and detection system on hand can prevent a small incident from becoming a major event.

Best Practice

Treat fire safety add-ons as standard equipment, not optional extras.
