linen in multi storey buildings.

Uni-Metal chutes meet the most stringent requirements of


environmental health and safety.
The inclusion of chute cleaning systems, sanitizing and
disinfecting units,sound damping and fire control
equipment, within the overall design of chutes have greatly
increased their usage throughout the world.
Uni-Metal chutes are fabricated to conform to: BS 1703: 2005,
BS 5906: 2005.

fire alarm subcontractor.
Sprinklers

8 Automatic Fire Cut Off Door with Fusible Link

This type has a horizontal rolling door held by springs on each side
connected to a fusible link.
In case of excessive heat (or fire) the link gets fused at
68°C (165° F) causing the door to roll shut. The discharge is 1.5 hours fire rated.
