JL Industries Ambassador Steel Semi-Recessed Locking Fire Extinguisher Cabinet 10 lb 1017W10

The JL Industries Ambassador 1017W10 is a semi-recessed steel fire extinguisher cabinet with a locking door, made in the USA. It is the 1017V10 with JL's Saf-T-Lok added: a keyed cylinder lock with a breakaway plastic cam, so day to day the cabinet stays locked against tampering and theft, and in an emergency a sharp pull on the door breaks or bends the cam and opens it without a key. Two keys are included for routine access and inspections. The vertical-duo door pairs a steel panel with a narrow clear acrylic window and swings on a continuous hinge that opens 180 degrees, and the 3 in rolled trim returns to the wall face in a smooth curve within the ADA 4 in projection limit.

Installer note

On Saf-T-Lok door styles JL sets the pull 3-1/2 in higher than the door center. Allow for that against the 48 in maximum handle height when setting the cabinet's mounting height.

Extinguisher compatibility

JL rates this tub for dry-chemical extinguishers from 2.5 to 10 lb, Halotron clean agent from 2.5 to 5 lb, and a 5 lb CO2 extinguisher. Before ordering, compare your extinguisher's overall height, handle included, with the tub's inside height and its overall width, hose included, with the inside width. Its cylinder diameter has to fit the 6 in tub depth. Allow at least 1 in of clearance each way and check that it fits through the door opening. See our Fire Extinguisher Cabinet Selection Guide for how depth drives fit.

Placement and mounting height follow the NFPA 10 requirements.

Model cross-reference

Without the lock this is the 1017V10, and the same lock on the 3/8 in flat recessed trim is the 1015W10. Both share this cabinet's 11-1/2 in × 25 in wall opening. The recessed 1015 needs it 5-7/8 in deep against 3-1/8 in here. The full-view locking version is the 1017G10. JL also builds this cabinet fire-rated (1017W10FX2), with tempered glass, in other colours and with lettering. For any of those, request a quote from this page.
