JL Industries 1013 Ambassador Surface-Mounted Fire Extinguisher Cabinet, Steel

The JL Industries 1013 is an Ambassador series surface-mounted fire extinguisher cabinet in steel, built around a 10-1/2" x 24" x 6" tub. The Ambassador is the steel cabinet in JL Industries' architectural line. Trim, door and tub are all cold rolled steel with a white powder coat finish, and several other powder coat colors can be selected. It is the default choice where a painted steel cabinet will be finished to match the surrounding wall. Tub sizes run from 9" x 18" x 5-1/2" through 20" x 27" x 7-3/4" for two extinguishers. Trim options cover trimless recessed for 5/8" drywall or 3/4" plaster, 3/8" flat recessed, semi-recessed square and rolled edges from 1-1/4" to 4-1/2", and surface mount square edge. Fire-FX2 is available up to 2 hours.

Fits: Cosmic 2.5 lb - 10 lb, Galaxy 2.5 lb - 10 lb, Mercury 2.5 lb - 5 lb, Sentinel 5 lb.

Configure this cabinet

Door style: Full Glass, Full Glass + Saf-T-Lok, Vertical Duo, Vertical Duo + Saf-T-Lok, Horizontal Duo, Horizontal Duo + Saf-T-Lok, Solid Door, Solid Door + Saf-T-Lok, Panorama Clear Polycarbonate, Panorama Clear Polycarbonate + Saf-T-Lok, Panorama Colored Acrylic, Panorama Colored Acrylic + Saf-T-Lok. Saf-T-Lok (SL-LC) is the standard lock for most locking cabinets: a theft-deterrent keyed cylinder lock used instead of a break glass lock lever, since breaking glass in a panic can injure people and create liability. The door appears locked and is, but a sharp pull breaks or bends a replaceable plastic cam and opens it. The cam is 1-5/8" x 1" x 3/32" and is replaced with a Phillips head screwdriver.

Glazing: Glazing 10 is 0.090" clear acrylic, the standard clear glazing. Glazing 15 is 1/8" bronze acrylic, for a tinted door. Glazing 16 is 1/8" gray acrylic, a neutral tint. Glazing 17 is 1/8" clear tempered glass. Glazing 18 is 1/4" clear safety glass, shown in the catalog as laminated safety. Panorama door style C uses 70 clear polycarbonate and 71 3/16" clear polycarbonate with Saf-T-Lok, while Panorama door styles P and Q use 3/16" acrylic in codes 40-53, covering black, red or white acrylic with white, black or red letters in vertical (40-43), horizontal (45-48) or ascending (50-53) orientation.

Pull / handle: Pull handles are 4" CTC in finishes matching the cabinet material, with a standard zinc pull (PUS) on most cabinets. The flush recessed pull (PRH, model suffix A) is a plastic cup-type handle, standard on all 4" trim cabinets and optional elsewhere; on a vertical duo door it moves the window to the right. The chrome lever handle (LH) is optional on cabinets without Saf-T-Lok.

Colored powder-coat finishes, magnetic catches, decorative bronze or brass pulls, Futura cast handles, wired glass and alarms are available on request — ask for a quote with your model number.
