FIRE-RATED ROLLUP SERVICE DOORS

Rollup fire doors are rated structural fire barriers that help block the spreading of hazardous fire and smoke by compartmentalizing a building space and keeping the event isolated. Many buildings today mandate the placement of rolling steel fire doors as a standard safety precaution.

The Firemiser Insulated Rolling Fire Door is perfect for an exterior application and reduces sound transfer thanks to mineral wool insulation. Mineral wool insulation also minimizes thermal transfer, which can help you with temperature control inside your building. Opt for the SmokeShield™ seal package for your fire-rated door if you’re required to conform to UL 1784 or want an additional barrier to eliminate smoke migration throughout your building.

With SafeSpace 500, safe rooms and storm shelters can be constructed to FEMA 361 (3rd & 4th Editions) and ICC 500 (2014 & 2020) Standards without sacrificing natural light and multi-purpose use. Utilizing McKEON’s wide span engineering capabilities, this technology will not restrict either the size or the number of openings that may be protected.

The latest edition of the IBC, Section 423, Storm Shelters, requires Group E occupancies and emergency facilities within the 250 MPH tornado and hurricane zones to incorporate safe rooms and storm shelters. These areas of refuge and safety can be detached structures or rooms within buildings. Regardless, all must comply with ICC 500 which incorporates, in large part, FEMA 361.

The SafeSpace 500 rolling steel door assembly is the only wide span opening protective to comply with strict ICC 500 and FEMA 361 wind-born debris requirements. Multi-purpose spaces may be designed with large unobstructed windows and light wells yet qualify as compliant safe rooms and storm shelters.
