36" x 36" BA-FW-5050 Fire Rated Panel
Fire-rated access panels are essential for managing heat transfer, preventing fire breaches, and containing fire in a building. They enhance fire safety for occupants, minimize property damage, and improve firefighters' efficiency. Building codes require these panels to ensure specific locations, such as walls and ceilings, and meet building regulations. The 36" x 36" BA-FW-5050 helps contain fire and heat within a localized area, allowing firefighters to focus on extinguishing the fire more effectively.
The BA-FW-5050 is a fire rated access panel that serves as a firewall, heat transfer blocker, and self-contained solution. It has a UL 1-½ hour rating for walls and a Warnock Hersey 3-hour rating for non-combustible ceilings, providing a vital barrier against fire. The 2-inch-thick fire-rated insulation reduces heat transmission, saving time during a fire.
The panel is user-friendly with a concealed hinge, self-closing mechanism, and inside latch release.
Why Should You Use the 36" x 36" BA-FW-5050?
- Superior Fire Rating: The BA-FW-5050 prioritizes safety. A UL 1-½ hour rating for walls and a Warnock Hersey 3-hour rating for non-combustible ceilings provides a significant fire barrier, giving occupants precious time to evacuate and firefighters more time to contain the blaze.
- Enhanced Building Safety: The BA-FW-5050 helps reduce fire damage to your building's structure and contents by minimizing heat transfer and preventing fire breaches through walls and ceilings. This translates to potentially lower costs associated with fire repairs and replacements.
- Code Compliance and Peace of Mind: Most building codes mandate fire-rated access panels in specific locations. The BA-FW-5050 gives you peace of mind that your building adheres to fire safety standards.
- User-Friendly Functionality: Fire ratings should not compromise convenience. The BA-FW-5050 offers a user-friendly design with a concealed hinge for aesthetics, self-closing, self-latching features for ease of use, and an inside latch release for quick access when needed.
