October is Fire Safety Month: Protecting What Matters Most
October is recognized as Fire Safety Month, and it’s the perfect reminder to make sure your home or business is as safe and prepared as possible. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has designated October 6–12, 2025, as Fire Prevention Week—a time dedicated to raising awareness about fire risks and the simple steps we can take to stay safe.

Fire Safety at Home and Work
Fire Prevention Week emphasizes education and preparation. A few important safety tips from the NFPA include:
-
Test smoke alarms monthly to make sure they are working properly.
-
Replace smoke alarms every 10 years.
-
Create and practice a fire escape plan with your family or employees.
-
Keep matches and lighters out of reach of children.
-
Stay in the kitchen when cooking—most fires start on the stovetop.
Why Testing Your Security Systems Matters
At Just-N-Case Security, we know that safety extends beyond smoke alarms. It’s just as important to regularly test your:
-
Security systems
-
Camera systems
-
Fire systems
Too often, people find out too late that a battery died or a device fell offline—leaving them without working footage or alarms when they need them most. That’s why we strongly recommend monthly testing of all your systems.
Need help testing? Call our office at 901-837-8090 and we’ll walk you through the process or place your system on test.
Batteries Don’t Last Forever
Did you know? Battery-operated devices and backup batteries generally last 3–5 years. If it’s been a while since your last battery replacement, now is the perfect time to schedule a check.
