Fire & Safety

Technical fire safety supply, not just a catalogue

MEK has been manufacturing fire doors for over a hundred years. That background shapes how we approach everything else we supply in this category: fire-rated doors, detection and alarm systems, firefighting equipment, and emergency safety gear for factories, hospitals, hotels, and institutions across Uganda. We think of it as a technical job, honestly, more than a sales one. Consultants and contractors come to us needing something that meets a real spec, and facility owners need equipment that will actually do its job during a fire, not just pass an inspection. If you're fitting out one building or running fire safety across several sites, someone on our team will walk you through product selection and stay involved after the sale too.

Where can I buy fire safety equipment in Uganda?

From MEK directly. Fire doors, extinguishers, alarm systems, firefighting equipment, with delivery for commercial and industrial projects.

What is a fire-rated door, and where is one required?

It's built to hold back fire spread for a set amount of time. Stairwells, fire escapes, plant rooms, and other compartmentalised areas in commercial buildings typically require them.

Do you supply extinguishers for different fire types?
