The ONLY Ligature Resistant Surface Mounted Solution for

CMS, ADA and NFPA-101 Life Safety Code Compliance

The Problem: The Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS) Centers for
Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has required in CFR 482.13 that psychiatric and
behavioral health facilities maintain ligature “resistant” or ligature “free” environments.
Many existing fire extinguisher or extinguisher cabinet installations present a ligature risk
and an immediate jeopardy situation.

The Solution: Ligature resistant fire

extinguisher installations are easy with
the low-profile, ligature resistant, surface
mounted cabinet designed for Oval Brand
extinguishers.

Oval Brand Fire Products now offers the

ONLY surface mounted solution that
complies with CMS, ADA and NFPA-101
Life Safety Code.

The low-profile ligature resistant cabinet,

designed for Oval Brand extinguishers,
has safe sloping edges and protrudes 4″
from the surface.

With Oval, there is no need to cut holes into existing walls for compliant cabinets.

Ligature risk deficiencies do not qualify for Life Safety Code (LSC) waivers, and therefore,
an LSC waiver may not be granted.
