What we do
Fire Curtains & Smoke Curtains We Manufacture & Fit
Smoke Curtains
Smoke curtains are placed to trap smoke and stop it flowing into escape routes. They are often fitted in high ceilings and atriums.
Made To Order
Every curtain is made to order for its opening, in public buildings, warehouses, offices and homes.
Working With Your Fire System
Fire curtains can be used as part of an existing fire safety system in your building.
Why Choose A Fire Curtain?
A fire curtain does the job of a fire barrier without a door in the way. When it is not needed it sits rolled up and out of sight, so it suits open-plan spaces, receptions and lounges where a fixed door or wall would spoil the room.
- Can be used as part of an existing fire safety system
- Gravity failsafe descent
- Low running and maintenance costs over the curtain's life
- Compact and discreet design
- Vertical and horizontal application
- Made to order for industrial, commercial and residential buildings
Smoke Curtains & Smoke Protection
Stopping smoke is as important as stopping fire. Smoke is one of the main dangers to people in a building fire, so a building needs protection from both to keep its occupants safe.
Smoke curtains are fitted to trap smoke and keep it out of escape routes. That cuts smoke inhalation and gives people a clearer way out.
