Rolling Steel Fire Shutter Doors

Rolling Steel Fire Shutter Doors are specialised types of fire-resistant doors designed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke within a building. They are commonly used in commercial and industrial settings where fire safety is a critical concern.

Here are some key points about Rolling Steel Fire Shutter Doors:

• Fire Resistance: These doors are constructed using fire-resistant materials and are designed to withstand high temperatures for a specified period of time. The exact fire rating (in minutes) will vary depending on the specific door and its intended application.


• Automatic Operation: Many Rolling Steel Fire Shutter Doors are equipped with automatic opening and closing mechanisms. They can be triggered by fire alarms, smoke detectors, or integrated into a building's fire suppression system.


• Material: They are typically made of steel, which is a durable and fire-resistant material. The steel slats that make up the door are designed to roll up into a coil when the door is opened.


• Insulation: Some models may include insulation materials within the door to further enhance fire resistance and thermal insulation properties.


• Smoke Control: In addition to providing fire resistance, these doors are often designed to contain and control the spread of smoke. This is crucial for maintaining visibility and breathable air in case of a fire.


• Customizable Options: They come in various sizes and configurations to fit different openings and spaces. They can also be customised with additional features like vision panels for visibility.


• Maintenance and Testing: Regular maintenance and testing are crucial to ensure that the door operates correctly in the event of a fire. This may involve inspections, lubrication of moving parts, and testing of the automatic closing mechanism.


• Installation and Professional Services: Installing Rolling Steel Fire Shutter Doors should be done by experienced professionals like Stab-a-Load who are familiar with local building codes and safety regulations.


• Cost Considerations: The cost of these doors can vary depending on factors such as size, fire rating, and additional features. It's important to balance the level of fire protection needed with the budget available.
