As described in a film magazine review,[3] Joseph Pickens, a leading citizen of Burbridge, plans to control the invention of a fast motor fire truck, which old Patrick Malone is exploiting. Young Sam Barton comes to Malone's machine shop to work as an efficiency man. Sam falls in love with Malone's daughter Jerry and they have several adventures together. When a forest fire threatens Burbridge, Sam and Jerry drive the fire truck through the flames to save the town. Malone's invention brings him riches, the scheme of Pickens is defeated, and Sam wins the affections of Jerry.
With no prints of Flaming Barriers located in any film archives,[4] it is a lost film.
