These are also known as fire-rated counter doors, secure openings using smaller (and more aesthetically pleasing) guides, slats, brackets and hoods than traditional rolling fire doors. Rated counter shutters protect interior corridors and create barriers for openings where life safety is a priority and can fully close to the floor when compact door components are desired. Choosing a fire shutter closing system is just as important as choosing a fire shutter. The advanced AlarmGard Closing system, available for fire shutters in motor, tubular motor, chain or crank, is recommended for the highest reliability and lowest cost of ownership with an unmatched simplicity of meeting annual test and reset requirements.
