Fire roller shutter doors are metal, roll-up shutters that fasten over a window or door to prevent flames and smoke from spreading. They’re typically connected to the building’s main fire control panel and triggered by a signal from the fire alarm or smoke detector. They can be programmed to close completely when activated or to close halfway to keep an escape route open for as long as possible.

The difference between a fire curtain and a regular counter shutter is that fire curtains are typically UL labeled for up to 3 hours and feature a fusible link that melts at 165 degrees. They can be triggered by smoke and heat detectors, a building’s alarm system, or LM21 fail-safe release devices. They’re also customizable with a variety of gauges, slat designs and finishes.
