Skold Door Company worked alongside Substance Architecture and Henkel Construction on Iowa State University’s Student Innovation Center.
Skold installed two McKEON Safescape® S9000 Series side coiling fire doors at ISU’s Student Innovation Center in Ames, Iowa. A 15′-0″ x 12′-4″ S9500 was utilized on the first floor. The wide-span opening protective has two 3′-0″ egress doors with fire exit hardware — allowing it to close off the stairs in the event of a fire. When deployed, complete compliance with shaft enclosure opening protective requirements is achieved.
The second floor contains a 64′-0″ x 9′-0″ S9000 fire door with one 3′-0″ egress door. This custom side coiling fire door was designed to accommodate a curve run application. The curve allows it to fully enclose the stair while providing a 3-hour fire rating. The S9000 is a simple resolve in a multi-floor challenge of vertical separation and egress!
