4700 SERIES SLIDING FIRE DOOR
DESCRIPTION AND BENEFITS

The 4700 Series are horizontal single slide, bi-parting slide and teleslide fire door systems. The composite, temperature rise fire doors are available with an optional 4’0" x 7’0" pass door; the first pass door in the industry to be Underwriters Laboratories, Inc, Classified and Factory Mutual Approved.

With classification labels up to a maximum of 4 hours, the 4700 Series offers effective protection for temperature sensitive inventory. A maximum 250 degrees temperature rise in 30 minute rating, the best rating available, allows the 4700 Series to meet low heat transmission requirements. And the optional pass door, complete with patented integral frame, provides both architectural and functional flexibility.

  • High Range units 6 PSI to 15 PSI
ROLLING FIRE DOORS

Rolling Fire Doors are designed to close automatically in the event of fire and to stop its spread from one area to another for up to a 4 hour period. These doors can be manual push-up, chain hoist, crank, or motor operated. Although they are fire rated and close automatically, they can still function as a Rolling Service Door. Either the curved slat or the flat slat is available to suit your application.

An oscillating governor is supplied (optional Viscous governor available) to control the rate of decent. The automatic closing mechanism is activated by either a fire alarm system, smoke or heat detector, or a melting fuse link 160 degrees Fahrenheit.

Fuse links or detectors can be mounted on both sides of the wall to activate the door from either side.

LABELED COUNTER SHUTTERS
(COUNTER FIRE DOORS)

Labeled Counter Shutters (Counter Fire Doors) are designed to provide fire protection similar to the Rolling Fire Doors. The reduced clearance requirements and compact size of guides and hoods make Fire Shutters the ideal units for small opening protection.

These doors can be manual push-up, awning crank, or motor operated. Although they are fire rated and close automatically, they can still function as a standard Counter Shutter.

An oscillating governor is supplied (optional Viscous Governor available) to control the rate of decent. The automatic closing mechanism is activated by either a fire alarm system, smoke or heat detector, or melting fuse link 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Fuse links or detectors can be mounted on both sides of the wall to activate the shutter from either side.

LABELED SMOKE SHUTTERS

Smoke Shutters are designed to limit smoke spread in public places such as elevator lobbies, corridors, ect… Mounted above the ceiling they coil out of sight and yet after activation of automatic closing they become effective smoke and draft barriers. The smoke shutter is often used with a smoke detector, heat detector or other alarm system that starts the release device.

As a secondary system of activation, fusible links are also provided which cause the smoke shutter to close upon link melting at a controlled rate of decent.

Smoke shutters can be supplied in widths to 10’0" (3048 mm) and heights to 10’3 ½" (3137 mm), equipped with perimeter smoke seals using a midget slat. Smoke shutters have been tested by an independent testing laboratory in accordance with ASTM E152 and approved for 1 ½ hour rating without a glass lite and ¾ hour with a glass lite. They have been designed and constructed in accordance with applicable provisions for separation of elevators of the ICBO Uniform Building Code, BOCA Basic Building Code, and SSBC Standard Building Code.

THERMAL INSULATED ROLLING DOORS

Thermal Insulated Rolling Doors are designed to provide maximum energy efficiency in a rolling door package. The slat is equivalent in size to a conventional rolling door slat. Its energy efficient design cuts energy waste due to heat flow through and around the door curtain. The slat incorporates foam-injected polyurethane completely enclosed between two layers of galvanized steel. Also available in prime painted galvanized steel, aluminum or stainless.

The slat design minimizes "metal to metal" contact, especially in the slat interlocks where the metal faces curve around each other. This allows as unimpeded flow of insulation into these hard to reach places.

Other benefits of the process: The bonded combination of metal foam metal creates an exceptionally strong door. The insulation is protected against damage and abuse for the life of the door.

The Thermal door is designed to incorporate energy saving features. The top of the door is weather-stripped with a hood baffle along the entire length of the hood. The side guides are weather-stripped and an astragal seals the bottom bar at the floor.
