Posted By Dennis c Reynolds We are a pallet rack company using several different installation companies. We hire Forklift trucks for use on site. Often these are gas fueled. There is need to hold 1 spare 18KG Cylinder of gas on site sometimes for as little as 2 or 3 days. Normally I would expect to store the spare cylinders outside a safely position secure cage suitably signed. It seams a little over the top to install a cage for 2 or 3 days. It seams more reasonable to chain and padlock the cylinder to a fence post or some other immovable object within a secure outside area. However that does not stop someone who should not be there EG. a child messing with it and releasing the gas. I have contacted the "usual suspects" and received advise none of it very practical. has anyone else had to solve this one?

Posted By Stephen Mitchell Dennis As you have stated you would secure the cylinder to an immovable object; and are now therefore asking how to stop unauthorised tampering with the valve then try having a look at http://www.seton.co.uk/s...00002-1%20200718-2.html.

Posted By Ron Hunter A small cylinder.Why not mount & keep the spare fuel/empty on the vehicle (FLT)? All secure, hazardous material all in the same place.
