Fire Curtain Line Shaft Hoist
Keep your venue prepared for a fire emergency with dependable, high-quality fire curtain deployment equipment. In the unfortunate event of a fire, a fire curtain line shaft hoist can effectively prevent heat, smoke, and flames on stage from reaching the audience. Give your performers, audience, and venue employees more peace of mind with a fire curtain hoist system from Thern Stage Equipment.
Product Description
With multiple mounting options and customizable features, our fire curtain line shaft hoist is an excellent option for many venues. The hoist uses a single motor with common shafting to drive one drum for each lift line, allowing for greater load capacities without introducing horizontal loads to the building structure. The integrated hydraulic controller provides automatic lowering for emergencies and conforms to ANSI E1.22 “Entertainment Technology Fire Safety Curtain Systems” and NFPA 80 requirements.
Made to last, the components of this hoist are made from durable, heavy-duty materials. We guarantee consistent service life for your fire curtain drum hoist by offering a two-year limited warranty to make sure that you’re 100% satisfied.
