Fire curtains are a key component in a theater's or auditorium's fire
safety system. Most building codes require a self closing fire curtain
to protect the audience. NorthEast stage provides and install JR Clancy
fire curtains that are the smart, economical solution for new theaters
and the proper upgrade for existing systems. For design, installation,
or service help, please contact the rigging experts at NorthEast Stage.
There are basically two types of fire curtains, straight lift or brail,
and they can be either manual or motorized. |
The most straightforward design is the straight lift fire safety
curtain system and is used when the available space is more than
twice the proscenium height. A counterweight set is used to balance
the weight of the curtain. Motorization is possible using a traction
drive winch in place of the head block. |
 |
This system is used when the space above the proscenium is as small
as half the height (or even less) of the proscenium opening. This
type of curtain is not counterweighted, but is operated by a brail
fire curtain winch. Both manual and powered winches are available. |

NorthEast Stage provides and installs JR Clancy heat resistant borders.
They are made of ZetexPlus 800 fabric (26oz. Sq yd) and are available
in natural tan and black. They are used to prevent hot spots (due
to high temperature theatrical lights) from damaging stage curtains. |
