In case a fire occurs in your building the best you can wish for is that it is contained in a small area. This ensures damage to the building is reduced and no one is injured because of the fire. A Seceurofire flame curtain is one of the most effective ways of preventing fire from spreading to other parts of the buildings. It works by containing fire to a specific area and gives people time to exit the building unharmed. If installed in any area that fire can find an opening to spread it guarantees maximum containment of fire.
The following are five benefits of using a seceurofire flame curtain:
Fully automated
It is electrically operated and designed to be linked to the building’s fire alarm and will automatically operate when the alarm is activated. In case of a power failure or alarm malfunction it also automatically works by utilising the battery back-up unit. This means they can be relied upon anytime to protect your property when a fire breaks outs.
Stops fire spreading
It creates strong boundaries that effectively stop the fire from spreading to other areas. They ensure the fire is contained within the point of origin and thus other areas are not damaged by the fire. When lowered it divides up large open places and creates a barrier to slow down the spread i.e. on the corridors in just a few seconds. It can work up to 2 hours fire rating.
Perfect for escape routes
When they are lowered on large open spaces the bottom rail can be lifted up to allow for an escape route big for everyone to go through. Installing the curtains on the most convenient escape routes ensure that all the people on the building can exit it whether elderly, young and disabled. It has a 2 hours fire rating thus gives everyone enough time. Position it in a strategic way that covers all easy exit routes and nobody will ever be harmed by fire in your building.
Design integrity maintained
You do not have to compromise on the aesthetic appeal or design of your building. They are invisible when not in use, they can be installed on many types of building steel, masonry or concrete and they can be powder coated to any RAL or BS colour. They can be fixed in narrow and wide areas without looking out of place and you can keep your interior decor and painting just as you like it.
Versatile installation
Their designs allow for both a face and reveal installation. The curtains can be fixed to any appropriate fire protected concrete or steel supporting construction with at least the fire resistance rating of the product being fitted.
