Security Direct Fire Shutter Doors combine fire integrity and security in a single system. Designed to automatically close in the event of a fire, these shutters prevent flames and smoke from spreading through compartments — protecting lives, assets, and escape routes.
Each fire shutter is tested to BS EN 1634-1 and available with ratings from 1 to 4 hours. With motorised operation, battery backup, and fire alarm integration, they provide a reliable and compliant fire barrier for a wide range of commercial and industrial applications.
A fire shutter door functions as both a security shutter and a fire barrier. It remains open during normal operation but automatically closes when activated by a fire alarm, fusible link, or thermal detector.
