Fire Protective Smoke Curtains US
BUILT IN THE US, OUR FIRE PROTECTIVE SMOKE CURTAINS CHANNEL AND CONTAIN FIRE AND SMOKE TO LIMIT PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SAVE LIVES
Building codes require the installation of fire curtains in most public spaces including theaters, schools, and warehouses. Our products are designed to adapt to your building’s unique specifications to overcome many architectural challenges.
Fire and smoke curtains are intended to work in parallel with fire alarms and fire suppression systems to deliver more comprehensive fire risk mitigation.
Fire And Smoke Curtain
Our US Fire and more curtains are tested for 1 1/2 hours to UL 10B Standard with hose stream test (ASTM E2226) for up to a 2 hour wall with an ingress/egress first responder door.
Curtains pass the UL 10B/UL10C/ UL 10D/ ASTME119 time temperature curve thus they are used as deployable smoke and fire barriers. ICC AC 77 is listed for elevator door smoke containment to remove the need to pressurize the hoistway or have lobby doors on hold open. Curtains also rate glass up to two hours and are used in lieu of static glass draft curtains per NFPA 13.
Operation
It can be installed and remain hidden until it’s needed. In the event of a fire, the fire curtain automatically deploys when interfaced with the building fire alarm system. Local smoke detectors or loss of power will also trigger the fire curtain

Steel-Fab Fire Shutter
Our Steel-Fab Fire Shutter is an opening protective that meets the requirement for a 90- minute fire protection rating and therefore can be used in a two-hour fire rated wall or fire barrier assembly.
The Steel-Fab Fire Shutter will release when receiving a signal from the fire alarm system. Push-to-exit buttons are installed for egress.
Steel-fab fire shutters are also ideal for situations where a solid barrier is needed for security and privacy, such as concession stands, service counters, and storage areas. They also provide an excellent exterior covering for windows. There are also designs for kiosks, carts, and other applications where headroom is at a premium. Rolling shutters are available in a wide variety of custom finishes and colors.
