Home/Property Safety Checklist For Your Home/Property

At Custom Metal Products, we know that safety is important to us because we know that it’s important to you. We know that home/property needs to be the most safest. Custom Metal Products wants you to use our safety checklist below to make sure your home is well protected because when your home/property's safety taken care of, you’ll have more time to spend on the important things - like your family.

  • Install smoke/carbon monoxide detectors near all bedrooms on ALL floors in your home/property. If already installed, TEST THEM! Make sure you change the batteries every daylight saving time changes just in case.
  • Make sure that all outlets should be covered so that a potential burgular can't use their tools.
  • If you have an fire escape, check to see if the steps and railings are in good condition. Also, check the drop ladder to see if it's working properly.
  • Check your roof hatch. Make sure you have the newer versions that have hinges connected to them along with a quick release slide bolt for you to escape easily and quickly.
  • Check your escape(Fire Dept. Approved) window guard to see if you have a quick release slide bolt for you to escape easily and quickly.
  • Have an escape plan and practice with your family/employee/co-worker where everyone knows the exits on the floors and/or throughout the property.
  • Make sure you have all purpose fire extinguishers in key locations (example: kitchen area). Make sure to maintain the current expiration dates and know how to use them properly.
