Fire Separations
Ottawa Fire Safety has proudly served the Ottawa community with designing & building Fire Separations within residential and commercial buildings of all sizes.
Fire separations are used to create separate fire-resistant zones within a building or between buildings. These zones are often used to divide large, complex buildings into smaller, more manageable sections. This helps limit the spread of fire from one unit to another, protecting both lives and property.
We have assisted our clients in Ottawa with:
- Fire Separation for Ceilings (horizontal fire barriers)
- Fire Separation for Walls (vertical fire barriers)
- Fire Walls
