A fabric fire rated door is described. The door utilizes a fire resistant fabric curtain with an end lock attachment. A tubular steel shaft is driven by an internal tube motor. The shaft is supported to minimize deflection. Single door shafts can also be joined together with a coupler shaft to create infinitely wide doors. The coupler shaft is spring loaded to act as a take up reel for a coupling curtain which will overlap each adjacent single door shaft. All curtains are attached to the same bottom bar. A hood covers the shaft, curtain, and the supports that run across the width of the door. The curtain travels over these horizontal supports as it drops down through the hood opening. The horizontal supports keep the curtain in position for proper seal during a fire/smoke event.

A roll-up door including a flexible curtain having a front surface, a back surface, a first end coupled to a shaft, a second end opposite the first end, and first and second side edges extending between the first end and the second end, the flexible curtain being moveable between a retracted position wherein the flexible curtain is coiled around the shaft and a deployed position wherein the flexible curtain is uncoiled from the shaft. A first retention band is mounted along at least a portion of the first side edge of the flexible curtain, the first retention band including an inner surface at least partially facing towards the flexible curtain, an outer surface opposite the inner surface, a fixed edge attached to the flexible curtain generally parallel to the first side edge, and a free edge opposite the fixed edge and movable relative to the fixed edge.

An overhead roll-up door assembly for a vertically moving door to permit and prohibit access to an opening, the door assembly having a door panel with two faces and opposing marginal and lateral edges, and at least two wind locks attached proximate each marginal edge. The at least two wind locks extend away from one face of the door panel in a direction substantially perpendicular thereto, and are spaced apart vertically along each respective side edge of the door panel. The assembly further includes a drum for winding and unwinding the door panel to permit and prohibit access to the opening, and, a pair of opposing parallel side columns aligned and spaced apart such that each of the opposing side edges engage one of the side columns in a manner in which at least a portion of the side columns guide vertical movement of the door panel.

The enclosure comprises: a partition (1) of panels (2) provided with longitudinal grooves (3) and a space for mounting a door (6); and a door (6) comprising: an upper box (7); and two vertical posts (9) with vertical guides (30) for moving a closing element (10), in addition to longitudinal channels (15) defining passages, with the longitudinal grooves (3), for housing fastening elements (16, 17) that can be vertically moved between a position wherein the door (6) is held and a position wherein the door (6) is released. The door comprises means for ensuring peripheral tightness in the closed position.

A door assembly, for an opening in a building, comprising a sealing assembly, wherein the sealing assembly is configured to seal a gap (36) between the rolling shutter door (4), the opening, and a surface of the building proximal the opening. The seal comprises a resiliently deformable member (48), and a sealing member (46), mutually positioned such that the resiliently deformable member co-operates with the sealing member when the rolling shutter door is in the closed position to seal the gap, which prevents or mitigates passage of sound, smoke, heat, and the like through the gap. The door assembly is preferably an acoustically-insulating door assembly.

A retractable curtain system is provided and includes a curtain support system, a curtain, and a retraction system. The curtain support system includes a pair of outer walls and an upper frame to provide a curtain receiving space. The curtain covers the curtain receiving space and includes a first non-transparent panel and transparent panel connected to the first non-transparent panel. The retraction system is connected to the curtain to lower and raise the transparent panel.
