Practical steps to protect your home and family

Fire safety isn't just about responding to emergencies — it's about preventing them. Here are essential measures every Gardiner household should take.

Test Smoke Alarms Monthly

Install smoke alarms on every level and inside each bedroom. Test them monthly and replace batteries at least once a year.

Create a Family Escape Plan

Map two exits from every room. Practice your escape route with your family at least twice a year. Designate a meeting spot outside.

Maintain Clear Fire Lane Access

Ensure your address is visible from the road and your fire lane is at least 12 feet wide. Emergency vehicles need unobstructed access.

Schedule a Free Inspection

Contact us for a complimentary home fire safety inspection. We'll identify hazards and help you create a personalized safety plan.
