Active Smoke Barriers comprise technologically advanced fire-resistant fabric barriers encased in compact steel housing. Barriers remain invisibly retracted until activated by an alarm or detector signal, at which time they descend safely to their fire operational position. To be compliant, Smoke Barriers must be protected from a short circuit and or total power failure, this is achieved with our patented Total Gravity Fail-Safe (TGFS) system. Smoke Barriers will control the spread of smoke in a building and protect the means of escape and create tenable conditions.
