UL Rated Smoke Curtains for Elevators in California

When building new construction, fire safety is an important consideration, whether you are working in residential or commercial spaces. Vanguard Smoke and Fire Curtains has been providing the latest solutions in fire protection to Orange County, Los Angeles, San Diego, Northern California, for years, including smoke curtains for elevators.

An elevator smoke curtain is crucial in modern larger constructions to improve fire safety. Smoke resistant curtains can enhance your existing fire safety system and provide crucial protection in elevator bays and large spaces. A smoke drop curtain works by dropping from the ceiling and physically blocking smoke, protecting residents and visitors from smoke inhalation.
 

You should place smoke curtains in:
 

  • Elevator bays

  • Larger atriums or lobbies

  • Warehouses

  • Around large open stairwells or escalators
     

Vanguard Smoke and Fire elevator curtains are particularly important as smoke often travels through elevator shafts and fills the building. Smoke curtains for elevators protect people on different floors from smoke inhalation. A smoke drop curtain in larger spaces helps block smoke from circulating by cutting off the entryways. It is important in commercial spaces such as warehouses and residential spaces such as large apartment buildings.

Our expert team serves Orange County, Los Angeles, San Diego, and Northern California with smoke protection services. We can advise you on the best smoke resistant curtains for your space, including smoke guard elevator protection.
