PRODUCT DATA SHEET | FM1 The side guide system A side guide system is always fitted and provides a seal between the sides of the curtain fabric and the walls, ensuring that any positive or negative pressures created by a fire will be resisted by the curtain and so that it won’t deflect significantly. Side guides can be integrated either into or onto a wall / soffit or into a recess / niche.The FM-1 side guide roller system has been designed to ensure that the curtain will move to its closed position easily even when there are significant air velocities around the curtain. Side guide...
