Why choose the SC1 Smoke Curtain?

The SC1 Smoke Curtain is a high-performance solution designed to enhance building safety by effectively containing and controlling smoke during fire emergencies. Tested to withstand temperatures up to 600°C, it offers up to 120 minutes of fire integrity, ensuring compliance with BS EN 12101-1 standards. This robust performance makes it an ideal choice for various applications, including airports, shopping centres, hotels, and other commercial or public buildings. By minimising the spread and leakage of smoke, the SC1 Smoke Curtain helps maintain visibility and air quality, facilitating safe evacuation and reducing potential property damage. Its versatility and reliability have led to its installation in numerous high-profile properties worldwide, underscoring its reputation as a leading smoke compartmentation solution.

The Smoke curtain requires a solid substrate, such as steel, concrete, or masonry, to properly anchor the headbox, side guides, and bottom bar. The substrate must be level and structurally capable of supporting the load of the fire curtain assembly.   Please note that the SC1 Smoke Curtain doesn't have any side guide rails.

The Fire Curtains are only available with a Single or Double Motor. The fire curtain is supplied as standard with a control panel which includes the Fire Alarm Relay, Staged Decent and Battery Backup. A switch can be fitted to the fire curtain to reset it after a fire activation. There is also the option of an emergency release button, in case someone gets trapped behind a closed fire curtain.

The Fire Curtain comes as standard in a Grey Kevlar finish.
