Residential Fire Curtains from Coopers Fire

Residential Fire Curtains

A Residential Fire Curtain is an Automatic Barrier / Curtain System that is a Fire Separating Element. It comprises fire resistance fabric fixed to a steel roller which is driven by an internal tubular electric motor.

The roller is mounted and enclosed in a steel housing and the bottom edge of the curtain has a weighted bar. The curtain is retained in side channels. It is activated from a Fire Detection System and closes to the finished floor level.
