TRAINING AND SAFETY - SELF FIRED PACKS

SAFETY ADVICE

All fireworks in Kimbolton Display Packs are classified as Category 3 Display Fireworks and are in accordance with British Standard BS7114, part 2:88

They require a minimum safety distance of 25 metres to people or property. It is always better to make full use of available space and increase this distance if possible, particularly in windy conditions.

PLANNING YOUR DISPLAY

Kimbolton Fireworks mail order Display Packs provide a range of high quality fireworks that have been sourced worldwide and carefully selected for their performance of effects and colours. They are particularly suited to private individuals or organisations wishing to hold their own spectacular displays.

The firework packs are designed on a modular basis so that they can be purchased and used individually or combined for larger displays to suit a variety of budget or site constraints. We are more than happy to discuss individual requirements and assist with selection of the most appropriate fireworks, alternatively view our suggested pack combinations.

Firing Order
Traditionally shows are started with a bang - perhaps a single rocket. After this, it is best to fire the display in rotation - Roman Candles, Rockets, a Set Piece or Mine and a larger calibre Rocket. If you have a Finale bouquet, keep this until the end to produce a spectacular display. End the display with another bang. Try to keep the display continuous.

Tip: It is often better to have a more intense display over a shorter period of time rather than extend the duration. It is our suggestion that if budget and space allow, fireworks can be fired in pairs to increase the overall spectacular effect and widen the viewing angle.
