Buy the Right Fire Extinguishers for Your NYC Building

Choosing the right fire extinguisher is not as simple as grabbing one off a shelf. NYC fire code requires specific extinguisher types based on the hazards present in each area of your building. A commercial kitchen needs Class K wet chemical units near the cooking line. A server room requires CO2 extinguishers that will not damage electronics. General office and hallway areas need ABC multi-purpose dry chemical units. Placing the wrong type means you fail inspection β€” and more importantly, you have the wrong tool for the fire you might face.

Empire Fire Services takes the guesswork out of fire extinguisher purchasing. We assess your building, identify the correct type, size, and quantity of extinguishers needed for each area, and handle everything from delivery to professional wall mounting, placement signage, and initial inspection tags. When we are done, every extinguisher in your building is the right type, in the right location, at the right height, with the right documentation β€” ready for the fire marshal.

We stock all major brands and types: Amerex, Badger, Buckeye, and Kidde in ABC dry chemical, BC, CO2, water, and Class K wet chemical configurations. Whether you need a single replacement unit for a hallway or a full building outfitting for a new construction project, we deliver and install throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island.

Every purchase includes professional wall mounting at the correct height per NFPA 10 (the handle should be between 3.5 and 5 feet from the floor), a location sign above the unit, and an initial inspection tag. You do not need to hire a handyman to mount them or remember to schedule a separate inspection. The extinguisher is ready for service the moment our technician walks out the door.
