I'm guessing this was in a school somewhere and that this was done to prevent vandalism. Obviously this is a case of competing values. In other words they were probably trying to keep people safe from the safety equipment. There obviously has to be a better way.
ReplyDeleteThere was one of these in my high school's theatre, and we had a framing hammer with a hole drilled through the handle attached to the wall with swedged aircraft cable. I broke the glass once to put out a small fire a student started when I was working for the school, and the glass has not been replaced since. The plastic tie broke easily though- wasn't even a struggle.
ReplyDeleteI would presume like the previous comment that this would be in a school and to prevent misuse of any Fire Extinguishers on the school grounds. Surely there has to be a better way, because in an emergency that time could ultimately cost dear.
