Larsens FB686 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Larsens FB686 tall fire blanket cabinet fit in a 6 inch stud wall or does it need recessing?
No recessing needed. The FB686 is a surface mount cabinet, so it hangs on the finished wall face and projects out from it. The box is 4 inches deep inside, 6.25 inches wide, and 68 inches tall, so plan on roughly that much wall face and a clear projection into the room. If your wall is a fire rated assembly or a solid CMU where you cannot cut in a recessed box, surface mount is the way to go anyway.
2) Is a surface mounted fire blanket cabinet allowed in an ADA egress corridor?
The FB686 is listed as ADA compliant. That matters because a surface mounted unit projects into the space, and protruding objects in a circulation path are exactly what ADA limits. The cabinet is 4 inches deep inside, which keeps the projection tight against the wall rather than pushing into the corridor like a deep recessed-alternative box would when surface applied.
3) Does the Larsens FB686 come with the fire blanket or is that ordered separately?
The blanket is included. Each FB686 ships with a 62 x 80 inch (157.5 x 203.2 cm) blanket made from a blend of reprocessed wool, meeting federal specification CS-191-53. You are not sourcing the blanket separately, and you are not sourcing a roller either, since the blanket comes attached to one inside the cabinet.
4) Can I get a Larsens tall fire blanket cabinet in stainless steel for a kitchen or lab?
Yes. The standard FB686 is cold-rolled steel with a red baked acrylic enamel finish. For a wash-down kitchen, a lab, or a corrosive environment, Larsens builds the same tall surface mount cabinet entirely of stainless steel as Model SS FB 68-6. Same tall roller format, different material.
5) Is the Larsens FB686 fire blanket cabinet itself fire rated for a rated wall?
The cabinet is not a fire rated cabinet. It is a storage enclosure for the blanket, not a rated assembly, so it does not maintain the rating of a fire rated wall. Since it surface mounts, that is usually a non-issue: nothing is cut into the wall, so the rated construction is never penetrated for the box itself.
6) Why is the fire blanket cabinet 68 inches tall instead of a small square box?
Because the blanket is stored on a vertical roller rather than folded. The interior is 68 inches high and only 6.25 inches wide, which is what lets a 62 x 80 inch blanket hang full length on its roll. In an emergency you put an arm through the arm loop and turn into the blanket, and it releases off the roller as you rotate. A folded blanket in a small pouch has to be shaken out first, which costs seconds you do not have on a person who is already burning.
7) Will a 62 x 80 inch wool fire blanket cover a person for a clothing fire?
Yes, 62 x 80 inches is a full body size, roughly the footprint of a twin mattress, so it wraps an adult rather than just smothering a pan. The blanket is a reprocessed wool blend meeting federal specification CS-191-53. That is the reason this style is specified in labs, kitchens, and schools where the hazard is a person on fire, not only a contained cooking flare-up.
8) What is the difference between the Larsens Architectural fire blanket cabinet and a plain utility box?
The FB686 is from the Larsens Architectural line, meaning the cabinet is detailed for a finished public space rather than a back-of-house equipment room. Steel door frame, cold-rolled steel body, red baked acrylic enamel as the standard finish. If you are standardizing a building, that is the same design family you would spec for the other fire cabinets in the lobby and corridors.
