Where are fire curtains installed?

The construction of each building or structure necessarily takes into account fire safety issues. That is why fire curtains have a great reputation among architects and design specialists.

Scope of application

Here are just some of the reasons why these kits are so popular:

Significant resistance to fire (from a quarter of an hour to two hours);
Allow for quick and free evacuation;
Relatively low cost of the products themselves, short production time;
The simplest installation (takes only a few hours);
The design takes up a minimum of space;
Unpretentiousness of operation and others.

The area where such fire-fighting structures are successfully used literally has no borders:

Fire curtains for elevators

Fire curtains that are used for elevators (elevator openings). A proven, proven option for years. Their installation must be carried out in all rooms in which there are elevators, or elevator halls, if the opposite is not approved by the calculations of the fire risk criterion.

Such structures installed on elevator shafts, doors, as well as their actual open openings will reliably protect against the spread of ignition and associated toxic fumes between floors.

Fire-resistant structures of complex shape

-Fire curtains "Accordion". Ideal for protecting the areas of shopping malls. As a good example, we can cite the atrium, or the well-known escalator. It has also proven itself well for the protection of stairs (marches).

As a rule, even during the design of shopping centers, such types of protection are assumed by the project documentation.

The product will reliably protect the area from the spread of fire and the subsequent circulation of smoke.

Moreover, thanks to its unique design (automatic, and without the use of the usual guides), when a fire occurs, the curtain is lowered and thereby reliably localizes (protects) the space of the shopping center.

Its shape can be from round to "U" shaped, which is certainly a factor of universality.

It is attached very simply: directly to the ceiling. It will not be difficult to place such a product in any place, even in a completely unsuitable place at first glance.

Durability is due to the time from 1 to 3 hours, depending on the availability of irrigation.

Fire curtains for parking lots

- Fire curtains are widely used to protect openings in parking lots. Often, residential buildings under construction that provide underground parking, or free-standing parking lots, already at the initial design stage assume their equipment with similar types of fire protection.

They make it possible to significantly increase the criterion of fire resistance by separating parking compartments, openings between parking spaces for the possibility of cutting off fires and localization of the latter.

Fire curtains for schools and lyceums

Fire curtains for educational institutions, including schools. As a rule, most school premises are built according to modern standards.

Therefore, fire curtains have gained great popularity among customers from the educational environment for the following reasons:

the ability to cut off school halls, almost all types of openings (windows, doors), and others in a matter of seconds;
create safe prerequisites for the organized evacuation of schoolchildren;
to secure school assembly halls – by cutting off the stage area from the rows of chairs.

Modern materials and devices that ensure fire safety at facilities work in conjunction with fire alarms and provide protection from fire and smoke at a high level.
