Due to the natural chimney effect that elevator shafts cause during a fire, automatic smoke curtains in front of elevators are highly recommended as elevator shafts have a tendency to draw smoke to other floors not currently affected by the fire.

Combing an elevator smoke curtain with an elevator door will create a nearly impenetrable assembly required by building codes. Similarly, smoke & fire curtains that block smoke from drifting up or down staircases are also highly effective for similar reasons.

Automatic fire rated curtains and elevator shaft curtains are a must for any multi-story building and can greatly reduce smoke inhalation. In addition to doorways, large opening protectives can help segment large spaces such as multi-level atriums, conference spaces and more. With many customizable sizes, Smoke Guard California has a configuration that will work for your needs. Give us a call today!
