(34,179 posts)I don't know how much money you've got, nor how much experience you have in such matters, but it wouldn't be all that hard to rent a trencher to lay water pipe to each structure. Since they are individual structures, one or two sprinkler heads would do. The sprinkler heads are probably the biggest expense, and you might be able to salvage them from an old building somewhere. I would seriously recommend this, since by the time you get to the building, getting to fire extinguisher could be impossible, and even if you could, the fire could be so big as for it to be ineffective. You really do need something like sprinklers which are automatic. Also, if you do install such a system, your insurance rates would decrease quite a bit. Getting the pipe should be fairly easy and cheap.
Put an electric lock on the gate, the kind where you press a button inside the house and the gate pops open.
Good luck.
