Automatic smoke vent windows are available for projects that need an extra level of fire safety.
AluFold Direct Smoke vent windows feature a cleverly engineered mechanism to automatically open the window if fire, smoke or excessive heat is detected within a building. Automatic smoke vent windows allow smoke or toxic fumes to rise up and escape from the building.
Removing smoke from a building not only minimises damage to the building, but also helps to clear the air to reduce smoke inhalation by occupants, as well as allowing for better visibility so that occupants can escape and firefighters have quicker, easier access to tackle the fire.
Every commercial or multiple occupancy building needs smoke vents which in case of fire will channel harmful fumes and smoke. AluFold Direct automatic smoke vent systems are fully autonomous and need no human intervention: as soon as smoke or heat is detected, the motorised mechanism opens the vent and allows for the toxic fumes and smoke to escape the building.
All AluFold Direct Commercial AOV Windows are manufactured using the highest quality aluminium. The sleek, slimline frames offer strength, durability and a clean modern aesthetic for commercial spaces of all kinds.
Our smoke vent windows achieve U-values as low as 1.3 Wm²K, are accessible and easy to operate, feature easily integrated trickle ventilation and a multi-point locking system.
All of these benefits mean our automatic smoke vent windows are compliant with Part L, M, F and Q of building regulations – all key considerations when choosing the best windows for commercial applications.
