- LifeDefender Cabinet Security Frames

When it comes to safety, LifeDefender™ not only meets the industry standards, we helped to establish them. From our beginnings, we worked with a select group of emergency vehicle and ambulance manufacturers to set the toughest safety standards as well as design products that meet these standards.

Our rigorous safety standards keep occupants inside emergency vehicles safe during transport. Austin Hardware's LifeDefender™ Cabinet Security Frames have been designed to provide a solution to meet the *SAE, CAAS GVS & NFPA safety standards. In addition to meeting strict safety standards, our frames are crash-tested to ensure that the vehicle occupants, EMS workers, and patients are safe during transport and in case of an accident.

- Ceiling IV Hanger

Changing out an IV bag creates a critical moment of compromise for the EMT because most IV hangers require them to use two hands to thread the bag. This puts the EMT in a dangerous position should the ambulance suddenly change direction or stop.

The engineers at Austin Hardware and Supply, Inc. have designed a new, patent-pending ambulance IV hanger system that allows for one-hand operation, enabling the EMT to engage the IV bag quickly and more safely.

- B Lift

The B-Lift is a hydraulic bariatric power lift, that provides an improved patient experience, reducing the potential for trauma during loading, and a safe, time-reducing lift, on-site for faster transportation.

A battery-powered, vehicle-mounted lift offers high patient and EMT safety during patient transfer into the ambulance. Our B-Lift promotes the well-being of the patient as well as those operating the lift, leading to fewer injuries for both parties.
