warning to the approach of an open fire,

2. Define a clear zone where occupants
must exercise additional caution.
3. Should be constructed of non-

and fixed in such a way so as to provide

unintentional removal.
Such a device could take the form of a
fender, a shelf, a wall mounted decorative
bar, etc.
