Smoke Guard is a building-code-driven and building-official-approved solution to the problem of smoke migration in buildings.
Smoke Guard gives design architects maximum flexibility when designing building for clients that need and demand efficiencies in the usable building areas. It also gives architects a more aesthetically pleasing solution in lieu of elevator lobbies and additional doors.
From a client / end-user's standpoint, smoke partitions have an overall lower life cycle cost than shaft pressurization systems.
