FIT STYLE GUIDE
A proper fit ensures safety. At Fire-Dex, we offer options to achieve the perfect fit. Below is a guide to the benefits of each and how they differ.
OVERVIEW
FireWriter will pre-populate a column for "fit type" on the sizing sheet. This allows you to choose the appropriate fit for each line item.
The field will default to "regular" and recommendations will be provided based on the measurements for each individual. You can manually select another fit as needed.
For directions on how to enter measurements and preferences into FireWriter, visit our Sizing Sheet Guide.
For generalized instructions on using the system, visit our FireWriter Distributor User Guide.
