Fire Extinguisher and Fire Equipment Inspection Register

An editable Excel register of your extinguishers, fire blankets and hose reels. Record each item, when you last checked it, when a service provider last serviced it and who did it. The next check and next service dates are worked out from the intervals you enter, and overdue items turn red. No law requires a fire extinguisher register: it helps you show you have met the duties that do exist, including the maintenance records the Building Fire Safety Regulation 2008 asks for in covered buildings.
