Dolans AX 1521 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Which size fire extinguisher does the Dolans fork style hanger hold?
Two sizes are offered. The 5 lb bracket is model 1521 and the 6-10 lb bracket is model 5525, so pick by the charge weight stamped on the extinguisher, not by the cylinder diameter you eyeball. Ordering is by capacity, 5 LB or 10 LB.
2) I have a mix of 5 lb and 10 lb extinguishers across my buildings. Can I standardize on one bracket?
No, one part will not cover both. The fork bracket is size specific: model 1521 for 5 lb units and model 5525 for 6-10 lb units. If you are standardizing across a property, count your extinguishers by charge weight first and order each bracket to match, otherwise a 10 lb cylinder sits wrong in a 5 lb fork.
3) Can I use a fork type extinguisher bracket in a truck or service van, or do I need a vehicle bracket?
The Dolans fork type bracket is called out for vehicle use as well as offices, warehouses and industrial spaces. The fork design grips the cylinder to hold it in place rather than relying on a loose hook, which is what matters in a moving vehicle. For heavy apparatus subject to constant vibration, a strap or clamp style vehicle bracket is the usual choice.
4) Is the Dolans fork bracket metal or plastic?
Heavy-duty metal, finished in red. Plastic hangers are common at the low end and crack with age, particularly outdoors or in cold vehicle bays; this one is built for repeat handling in commercial and industrial spaces.
5) What do I need to mount a fork style fire extinguisher bracket to a wall?
The Dolans fork bracket mounts quickly with simple fasteners through the mounting holes, but anchors are chosen for the wall you have: toggles or self-drilling anchors in hollow drywall, sleeve or wedge anchors in concrete and block, and screws into a stud or wood blocking where there is one. Fasteners are not part of the bracket, so plan to supply them.
6) Does a fork bracket hold the extinguisher as securely as a strap bracket?
The fork design closes around the cylinder for a firm hold and still lets the unit be lifted straight out in an emergency, which is the tradeoff you want on a wall in an office, warehouse or industrial space. A strap bracket holds tighter but slows retrieval. For a fixed wall location with regular inspections, the fork style is the common choice.
