Fire Curtains
Expert manufacturer of fire curtains
Our range of smoke and fire curtains are designed to be as discreet as they are effective. Fire curtains are very similar to fire shutters; the curtain is made from reinforced stainless steel wire and coated with a fire retardant coating. Aesthetically speaking, a fire curtain is more pleasing, able to roll into a much smaller box and offers a much neater and tidier alternative to a fire shutter.
The guides on a fire curtain are normally concealed within the wall and most fire curtains go completely unnoticed – meaning they can fit into your aesthetics seamlessly. Intelligent control panels allow a controlled, delayed decent from the 24dc gravity decent tubular motors. Our fire curtains can offer 120m integrity and 85m radiation @ 15kw/m2 (60/EW120). Suitable for any space, fire curtains efficiently protect your premises against the spread of smoke and fire, assuring guests, customers and workers feel relaxed and safe.
