Emergency safety hammer

The safety hammer is a very important tool in the car. This hammer generally has two sharp points and a sharp belt cutter. In the event of a collision or if the car hits water, the doors and windows can become blocked and unable to open. The electrical operation of the car can cause malfunctions, which means that you can no longer open the doors and windows. It is therefore vital to have an safety hammer at hand. The seat belts are easy to cut with an safety hammer and you can knock out the windows with the sharp points.

Having an safety hammer is not mandatory in the Netherlands, but it is strongly recommended. Preferably you even place 3 safety hammers in the car. One for the driver, one for the co-driver and one for the back seat.

Secure safety hammer

When mounting the safety hammer in the car, it is important to first choose the right location. The location of the safety hammer must be accessible to you without having to move from your chair. In most cases, the safety hammer is attached to the ground next to the seat or to the roof. Always make sure that you place the hammer properly in the holder, so that it cannot slide loosely through the car on the way. It is strongly not recommended to keep the safety hammer loose in the glove compartment or in another place in the car. This is not easy to reach in case of an emergency.

Often the fixing pins for fixing the holder are supplied with the safety hammer. The way of fixing can differ per lifehammer. In the supplied installation manual you can read everything about the correct attachment of the safety hammer in question.
