    Fire Sprinkler Head Cover Plates

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Fire Sprinkler Head Cover Plates.
    Block the gap between a sprinkler head and the wall or ceiling. Also known as escutcheons, these plates make sure rising heat sets off your sprinklers instead of escaping through the gap.
    Split—Split plates snap together over a sprinkler head that’s already installed.
    Solid—Solid plates must be installed before a sprinkler head.
    Adjustable—Adjustable plates let you customize the depth to conceal pipes that stick out from the wall or ceiling.
    Recessed Mount—Recessed plates sit flush against a surface for a clean look. They have a flat outer ring and an inner ring that extends into the wall or ceiling.

    Fire Sprinkler Heads

    When a fire starts, these sprinkler heads automatically release water to put it out. Choose a head with the same trigger type and temperature rating as the other heads in your sprinkler system. To comply with NFPA standards, use a sprinkler-head wrench or installation socket (both sold separately) to install and maintain these heads.

    Protect sprinkler heads from damage and tampering.
    Fire Sprinkler Head Guards with Water Shield—Guards with a water shield are made for upward-facing sprinkler heads. They direct spray downward, so it won’t set off sprinklers higher up. They’re often used for in-rack sprinkler systems.
    Hook On—Hook-on guards are easy to install.
    Screw On—Screw-on guards clamp securely onto your sprinkler head with the included lock screw. You can adjust their position up or down on the sprinkler threads.

    Stopper Shown in Use

    Cases

    Stop the flow from a discharged sprinkler head to minimize water damage. Like locking pliers, these stoppers clamp down tightly and stay locked even after you release the handles. That means the rest of your sprinkler system can remain online until you have a chance to repair the head. A fail safe restores water flow to the broken head if a fire breaks out—when temperatures reach 250° F, the handles pop open.
    Cases—Add a case to mount your stopper on the wall for quick access during an emergency.
