Fire & Smoke Dampers
Fire and smoke dampers are essential components in building safety, designed to contain fire and smoke within designated compartments and prevent their spread through ductwork crossing fire-rated barriers. Built to withstand extreme temperatures, these dampers meet EN 1366-2 standards, providing up to 120 minutes of fire resistance in drywall partitions, masonry walls, and concrete slabs. Equipped with motorized, leakage-rated designs and Belimo actuators featuring thermal probes rated at 72°C, they ensure automatic, fail-safe closure in the event of a fire, significantly enhancing protection.
DuctFix specializes in helping clients select the right fire and smoke dampers for their specific applications. Our team assesses each project’s unique requirements to recommend dampers that meet both regulatory and safety needs, while also offering expert installation guidance. Our dampers are engineered for easy setup, with surface-mounted components and factory-punched fixing holes that eliminate the need for additional backfilling or sealing, simplifying installation and saving time.
Designed to suit a variety of duct shapes—including square, rectangular, circular, and flat oval—our dampers work in single and multiple-section assemblies. DuctFix provides reliable, tailored fire safety solutions for diverse environments, from commercial buildings and hospitals to industrial facilities, where containing fire and smoke is essential to protecting occupants and property. With DuctFix, clients receive peace of mind through durable, compliant fire safety products.
