Why Choose Fire Resistant Roller Shutters?

Fire-resistant roller shutters act as a passive fire barrier. Instead of actively extinguishing flames, they limit the fire’s movement by isolating the affected area, containing it to a controlled space. This simple measure can prevent extensive fire damage and also protect lives. Our fire-resistant roller shutters stand out because:

  • High Heat Resistance: Certified to meet stringent safety standards like EN 13501-2, our shutters withstand extreme temperatures.
  • Automatic Activation: Connected to fire alarms, these shutters automatically close upon fire detection by gravity failsafe system.
  • Flexible Installation Options: With various sizes and custom options, our shutters fit seamlessly into many spaces.

How Do Fire Resistant Roller Shutters Work?

Fire-resistant roller shutters are crafted from special materials, including heat-resistant metals, that can withstand high temperatures without warping or compromising the safety barrier. When connected to your building’s fire detection system, these shutters close automatically when triggered by an alarm, sealing off sections of the building and preventing flames and smoke from moving freely.

Our curtains undergo rigorous testing according to EN standards such as EN 13241 and EN 1634-1, all the products feature the mandatory CE marking in accordance with EN 16034, so you can trust they’re ready for action in a real emergency.
