Fire doors might not look like much, but they’re true life savers. 🚪🔥 They help contain smoke and flames, giving everyone precious time to get out safely.

Here’s how you can help:
🚫 Never prop them open.
🔍 Check for a certification label.
🛠 Inspect closers, hinges, and seals.
📞 Report any damage immediately!

Cooking is the leading cause of residential fires — but most can be prevented with a few simple habits:
🍳 Stay in the kitchen while cooking.
🧤 Wear short sleeves and use oven mitts.
🧯 Keep a fire extinguisher nearby and know how to use it.
🔥 Keep flammable items like towels and packaging away from the stove.
🥘 Turn pot handles inward and clean up grease regularly.

If a fire does start, — never use water on grease fires. Smother the flames with a lid and call for help. Let’s keep our kitchens (and ourselves) safe!

Small actions make a big difference when it comes to fire safety! 🔥
Check your cords, unplug appliances, skip the candles, and keep scooters out of buildings.
Do your part to keep the Pack safe and fire-free! 🐾

Fire doesn’t wait — and neither should you! 🔥 Know your fire safety basics:

Monthly extinguisher check ✅
Use P.A.S.S. to put out small fires 🧯
Stop, Drop, & Roll if your clothes catch fire 🔥
Evacuate immediately if needed 🚪
Memorize at least 2–3 exits from every building you visit

Be ready — your quick actions could save lives! 🐺
