48” x 96” - Automatic Double Smoke Vent – Steel Curb & Aluminum  

Smoke vents such as BA-DSH-A 48" x 96" Automatic Double Smoke Vent – Steel Curb & Aluminum by Best Access Doors provide the highest standard of protection, providing crucial ventilation and suppression in the event of a fire. BA-DSH-A optimized by Best Access Doors, features a highly innovative fusible link that automatically activates double-leaf doors for immediate ventilation. 

Count on this model's compression springs to automatically open against wind or loads as high as 10 psf. BA-DSH-A protects your elevator shafts, schools, gymnasiums, and retail structures by providing a point of attack for firefighters while potentially reducing the impact of a blaze. 

Why Choose BA-DSH-A? 

Automatic Double-Leaf Ventilation: BA-DSH-A features a positive releasing latch, activated by a rigorously tested UL-listed fusible link, which melts at temperatures over 165°F. Once the fuse melts, you can count on BA-DSH-A's covers to release, expelling flames, fumes, and toxic gases.   

Weatherproofed Construction: BA-DSH-A has EPDM rubber gaskets permanently adhered to its cover, providing a tight seal while leaving the elements out of your spaces. BA-DSH-A's built-in drainage channels leave it highly corrosion-resistant from elemental exposure.        

Structural Reinforcement: BA-DSH-A provides live-load support of up to 40 pounds per square foot of load-bearing support to your rooftops.  

UL 796 Compliant: BA-DSH-A fortifies your structures with tamper-resistant heavy-gauge steel and a Class A UL 796 rating, providing the highest level of fire resistance for rooftops.     

Optimized Energy Efficiency: BA-DSH-A has 1" thick fiberboard insulation within its curb, reinforced by 1"thick fiberglass within its cover for enhanced thermal resistance and reduced energy consumption.  

Easier Installations: With a 3-½" mounting flange, an overlapping cover design, and 7/8" predrilled holes, BA-DSH-A easily and securely fastens to roof decks with a straightforward, streamlined process.
