Transforming a fire escape into a functional patio requires careful consideration of safety and legality. The primary rule is never to obstruct the escape path. Furniture must be compact, lightweight, and easily removable. Opt for foldable or stackable chairs made of materials like aluminum or treated, fire-resistant resin. A small, foldable bistro table can work if it leaves ample clearance. Avoid heavy planters, grills, or permanent structures. Always prioritize your safety and that of others by checking local fire codes—many prohibit any storage on fire escapes. The goal is to create a temporary, minimalist retreat that respects the critical lifesaving function of the structure.
