Protect Your Fire Safety Equipment With An STI Stopper

Think about it. Each incident of malicious false alarm that is attended to by the Fire and Rescue Services means thousands of pounds in lost public funds. More, importantly, these exhaust government resources and hamper operations in cases where a real fire actually breaks out. At the same time, too many false alarms also desensitize building occupants and prevent them from acting accordingly when a real fire occurs. In most cases, vandals also destroy equipment by repeatedly using and misusing these for no real reason. With these in mind, building managers must be able to enforce some sense of security to prevent false alarms from happening and, at the same time, protect valuable fire safety equipment from vandals, thieves, and other entities. This is where an STI stopper enters the picture.

STI stoppers comprise a range of devices to prevent vandals or other entities from damaging important fire safety equipment, setting off alarms with malicious intent, stealing fire safety equipment, misuse, or unauthorized use of fire ext points. These stoppers are normally made of sturdy materials such as rigid plastic, tamper-proof polycarbonate, and the like. These STI stoppers come in various forms such as the Mini Theft Stopper Alarm, the Extinguisher Stopper Alarm, the Call Point Stopper, the Exit Stopper, the Fire Alarm Stopper, and the Alert Point Fire Alarm, among many others.
What kinds of fire safety equipment can be protected by these?
Any STI stopper offers anti-theft and anti-damage protection for a wide range of fire safety equipment such as fire extinguishers, fire alarms, and fire exit points.

From the names themselves, you would know which product is for what type of equipment. For example, Fire Alarm Stoppers prevent false alarms by providing a tamper-proof covering over a fire alarm. These are normally used in nursing homes, hotels, schools, sports halls and other locations where false alarms normally abound. Meanwhile, Exit Stoppers are placed on top of fire exits such that when the door is used illegally, then the device will sound an alarm. On the other hand, Extinguisher Stopper Alarms prevent theft, misuse, and mishandling of fire extinguishers.

These alarms are normally affixed on a wall and are connected to the neck of a fire extinguisher with a short cable. If the ifre extinguisher is removed from its location in cases other than an emergency, the cable will drop out of the alarm, after which a 95db alarm will ensue.
