CASE 1: L-Shape Horizontal Shutter
Vertical Opening Separation
An escalator provides convenient movement for building occupants communicating multiple floors. However, escalators are typically not a part of the required means of egress.
While a parking garage doesn’t require an aesthetically pleasing solution, from a life safety perspective the need for fire and smoke protection is the same. A 2-hour rated horizontal shutter satisfies both the basic requirement of opening protection and enclosure of the escalator.
