According to NFPA 1, Fire Code, and NFPA 1141, Standard for Fire Protection Infrastructure for Land Development in Wildland, Rural, and Suburban Areas, the maximum distance a fire department access road can be from the exterior door of a single-family home equipped with an approved automatic sprinkler system is typically 150 feet (46 meters). This allows the fire department to access the property effectively while providing some flexibility in site planning and landscaping.
