Vanguard Protects Historic Pasadena with Modern Smoke and Fire Curtains

Old soul and historic charm meets modern innovation –– Vanguard protects Pasadena's historic architecture with code-compliant smoke and fire safety solutions.

Pasadena's architecture tells a story — one of historic charm meeting modern innovation. From restored heritage buildings to state-of-the-art institutions, each Pasadena structure deserves top notch safety that respects its architectural character. That’s exactly what Vanguard Smoke and Fire Curtains delivers.

A Modern Solution for Pasadena’s Classic Architecture

Preserving Pasadena’s architectural integrity means finding safety systems that blend seamlessly into their surroundings. Our retractable smoke and fire curtains are ideal for retrofits, tenant improvements and new builds. When not in use, they remain virtually invisible, allowing historic ceilings and open atriums to shine. When deployed, they protect lives and limit damage from smoke and fire.

Meeting California Fire Code with Ease

As part of the California Building Code and NFPA requirements, many Pasadena properties — especially commercial, public, educational and mixed-use buildings — must include approved smoke containment solutions. Vanguard helps architects, engineers and property managers design, install and maintain fire curtain systems that ensure full compliance and long-term performance.
