How to Stay Safe When Using Fireworks in Small Gardens
When firing fireworks in small spaces, safety is key. Here’s how to ensure your display is both safe and sensational:
-
Designate a Clear Firing Zone: Allocate an open, stable space with a minimum 8-metre safety distance.
-
Stabilise Your Fireworks: Always use flat, fire-resistant surfaces or secure supports like rocket tubes.
-
Clear the Area: Remove flammable materials like dry leaves or garden furniture.
-
Use Proper Lighting Tools: Portfires or firework lighters provide safer ignition than matches or lighters.
-
Keep Water Handy: Always have a bucket of water or hose nearby.
-
Read Instructions Carefully: Each firework comes with guidelines—don’t skip them!
