Safety Technology STI-9605-SS Mini Smoke Detector Guard

Product Description

The Safety Technology International STI-9605-SS is a mini smoke detector guard constructed from stainless steel. Designed to protect smoke detectors from accidental damage, tampering, or vandalism, this guard fits over a standard smoke detector housing and provides a physical barrier without blocking the detector's sensing capability. It is a common protective accessory in commercial, institutional, and industrial environments where detectors are exposed to high-traffic areas, mechanical impact, or intentional interference. Installation is handled by licensed fire protection technicians or qualified maintenance personnel.

This guard is suited for applications where smoke detectors require added protection against physical contact or tampering. Typical installation scenarios include gymnasiums, warehouses, correctional facilities, schools, and other commercial or institutional spaces. The stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance, making it a practical choice in environments with elevated humidity or exposure to cleaning agents. It is sold as a single unit.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed fire protection technician or qualified facilities maintenance professional. Disable the fire alarm system or notify the monitoring station before servicing any detector or guard. Confirm that the guard does not obstruct the detector's sensing chamber or test access points after mounting. Local fire codes and NFPA 72 requirements should be consulted to ensure the installed guard meets approval for the specific system and occupancy type.
