Our Story
Our story began in 2017 with fire extinguishers stored in our garage and a lot of door knocking at local businesses.
Having many years experience in sales, owned several successful businesses, and worked for many years in the fire protection industry, we knew there was a niche for a business to provide a complete fire safety service and product supply, alongside great prices and great service to both business and home owners.
Today we are proud to work with some of the top suppliers in Aotearoa New Zealand to supply and support thousands of schools, offices, workshops and other kiwi businesses around New Zealand. We are also grateful for the many private individuals who use our online store for their home needs.
