Fire sense: anti-theft and fire prevention more than 20,000 cash was burned to ash
Two days ago, I came across a heartbreaking news story about an elderly couple from Xinqiao Town, Xinbei District, Jiangyan. Their home caught fire suddenly, and the flames almost destroyed everything, including their life savings.
The incident occurred at 2:37 PM on Wuyishan Road. When firefighters from the Taishan Road Fire Squadron arrived, they found a lot of trash surrounding the house, which may have contributed to the rapid spread of the fire. The elderly couple was extremely worried, claiming that over 20,000 yuan was inside the room. In a brave move, one firefighter rushed into the burning building under the cover of his team, searching for the money as the old man pointed in the direction. After nearly ten minutes, he managed to pull out two bundles that looked like money. However, when the old man saw most of it had been burned, he broke down in tears right there.
According to the couple, the money was their hard-earned savings for the entire year, meant to buy an electric tricycle. They kept the cash in two shoes, thinking it was safe from theft. Unfortunately, they didn’t expect a fire to happen. It turned out that the fire started when the old man left the pot of porridge unattended while he went out.
Life is full of dangers, many of which are unpredictable. This couple, who were focused on protecting their belongings from thieves, never imagined they would face a fire. Their lifelong savings were lost in a matter of minutes. Although this was a painful lesson, it serves as a reminder for all of us to be more aware of fire safety. Beyond fires, we also face other natural disasters such as typhoons, heavy rains, and floods—challenges that require constant vigilance.
Our society is vast, and although we may feel safe in our daily lives, we must never become complacent. Whether at work, crossing the street, or doing everyday tasks, we should always stay alert and practice safety measures. Don’t think that disasters won’t happen to you. Being careful is never a burden—it’s a habit that can save your life and protect those you care about. Many people now choose to invest in fireproof and waterproof safes, showing a growing awareness of personal security.
One such product is the Shield Safe, which not only offers anti-theft protection but also features advanced fireproof and waterproof capabilities. It is currently one of the most reliable multi-functional safes on the market. What makes it unique is that it has passed the UL certification, the highest fire protection standard globally. According to the UL350 standard, the safe can withstand temperatures up to 927°C for one hour, keeping the internal temperature below 177°C. Some models even maintain a temperature below 100°C, far exceeding international fire safety standards. It's 100% flame retardant, ensuring that important documents and cash remain protected. Its waterproof feature allows it to resist high-pressure water sprays or immersion for up to 30 minutes, keeping your valuables dry and safe.
Natural disasters don't show mercy, so the best we can do is stay prepared. This story is a warning to everyone to raise our safety awareness and take proactive steps to protect ourselves and our loved ones. Together, we can build a safer, more harmonious community.
Elevator doors have two major types, manual and automatic. Manual doors are normally opened and closed manually by hand, and automatic doors are the standard type of doors found in modern days elevators, usually powered by a door operator.
Non-automatic/manual doors
These doors are normally opened or closed manually using hands, although some of them close automatically. Most older and small European elevators from the 1950's to 1970's are using manual hinged door (similar to normal room doors), while the inside has a manual sliding scissor gate or often there is no door at all. For manual doors, sometimes the door can be spring loaded so the gate can't be left open, or the gate can automatically close when you press the button, and partly/completely close when the elevator gets to a floor. The inside door can also be a tubular gate, which is a gate that in many cases folds around the side of the cab when it is open (often called a barred gate by elevator enthusiasts, though this is likely not the actual term), and which can be automatic or manual.
These type of door is still used today, normally for smaller wheelchair lifts or home elevators. Some older freight elevators may have a horizontal or vertical manual doors. In some Asian countries, one may find an old freight elevators with manual accordion or scissor gate. Some old elevators may have a semi-manual doors a configuration of manual door outside and an automatic door inside.
Automatic doors
Automatic doors are the standard type of doors found in modern days elevators which was introduced in 1887. Almost all the automatic doors are usually powered by a door operator installed on the elevator car. Those except manual door with automatic door opening/closing device and all the incline elevators with every independent door operator belongs with every single shaft doors and car doors.
