Fire Extinguisher Servicing
Ready When It Matters

Competent inspection, maintenance and asset recording for portable fire extinguishers across Northern Ireland.

Practical First-Aid Firefighting

The Right Extinguisher in the Right Place

Portable fire extinguishers must be suitable for the risks present, correctly positioned and maintained in serviceable condition. A label alone does not prove that an asset remains appropriate or dependable.

CTS Fire & Security reviews each unit, its location and its condition. We identify missing, damaged or unsuitable equipment and give you a clean asset record with straightforward remedial advice.
