DuraSteel Fireproof Vaults & Barrier Walls
Applications
Invicta Durasteel® insulated fireproof vaults and barrier walls are proven to block fire and prevent damage to stored materials.
VAULTS can be built in a new or existing warehouse, on a mezzanine, indoors or outdoors, anywhere extra protection for valuable items is required.
BARRIER WALLS are used to compartmentalize and protect valuable inventory or machinery and as a separation between personnel and potentially hazardous materials.
Applications for Invicta Durasteel vaults and walls include:
- Archival, Media, Video, and Digital Media Storage in rooms or complete vault systems
- Preservation Areas/Vaults for paper documents, microfilm, artwork and historical artifacts
- IT Rooms/Vaults for protection of computer equipment, computer software, digital records, and server equipment
- Multi-Level Vaults and comprehensive vault/mezzanine systems
- Barrier Walls for separation and protection in warehouses and distribution centers
- Valve Enclosures
- HazMat Areas
- Protection for escape routes, tunnels, fire exits and stairways
- Safe/Escape Rooms
- Cable Enclosures
