Quickly and Easily Navigate Your Way to Safety The Fireground Compass® is a lightweight, easy-to-use tool that combines a compass with rotating bezels. It has a “building bezel” with four points labeled A-B-C-D, corresponding to firefighters’ current labeling system for each side of a building.

 

1 - First, the compass is oriented to north.

 

2 - Then, the bezel rotates to reference the A-B-C-D sides of the building. Together, the compass and rotating bezel combine to give users a common reference point.

 

3 - A separate, “command bezel” helps indicate where the command post or point of entry is locates relative to the building.

 

The durable and heat resistant compass is illuminated by LED lights, making it easy to read in dark or smoke filled environments. The compass is sized specifically to be used with gloved hands, allowing firefighters to easily and quickly orient the compass.
