FIRE CURTAINS

Most cities and states require a proscenium fire safety curtain in theaters, school auditoriums and other public performance space. United Stage Equipment, Inc. offers two types of fire curtains to help you meet your requirements. These curtains are made of a special heat resistant material. They are designed to be closed and separate the stage from the audience in the event of a fire.

Brail Fire Curtains
This curtain is used on stages in which the area above the proscenium is less than one half of the proscenium opening. The curtain is stored in a acordian-type manner to take up a minimal amount of space. This curtain can be motorized or manually operated with a brail winch. (See Diagram)

Straight Lift Fire Curtains
This type of fire curtain is used on stages in which the area above the proscenium is greater than the overall height of the proscenium. The fire curtain is stored above the proscenium as a straight piece. This curtain can be motorized or manually operated on a counterweight system. (See Diagram)
