I remember having an apprentice, he was 21. We were hanging fire
extinguishers on the walls in a very posh accountants office. I asked
him if he knew how to use a drill and a screwdriver. He said yes. I
left him to it. The next day I had to go back as what he had done had
fallen off the walls. He made me look like a right ****.
Fixing something heavy to a wall is not something I'd leave to anyone,
unless I was certain they knew how to do such a job.
A fire extinguisher is not exactly heavy.
That applies to all of them?
Any extinguisher that weighs too much for a person to lift is pretty
useless.
I have seen in films, larger ones on trolleys, that can be moved to
where needed, but not carried.
