San Francisco International Airport is one of the busiest #Airports in California, second only to LAX. It’s no surprise the largest airport in the San Francisco Bay Area is home to the widest UL 10D Fire Protective Smoke Curtains in the golden state, measuring 120′ wide.
AIA ONDEMAND COURSE # 95008
This AIA course will increase the knowledge of participants in the fact that Elevator Shafts, Elevator lobbies, are conduits for life threatening smoke migration in all types of buildings. Without utilizing “Elevator Door Smoke Containment Systems” at such openings, the spread of smoke and fire can compromise the Health, Safety and Welfare of the building occupants.
Fire rated UL 10D smoke curtains compartmentalize and retard the migration of smoke and fire thus increasing the life safety of the building occupants.

Door Systems assisted with this year’s HomeAid Orange County Annual Thanksgiving Meal Drive, a community-based donation drive aimed at collecting non-perishable foods for our neighbors experiencing and/or at risk of homelessness so that they can have food on the table for Thanksgiving dinner.
DSI employees from various departments came together as a team to help organize hundreds of pounds of food to create meal boxes for families and individuals. Since its inception in 2019, these meal boxes have fed over six thousand people living in HomeAid-built housing projects. Each meal box contains enough food to feed up to 4 people.
“Perla Tower” AKA 400 S. Broadway @ Historical DTLA
A deep look at how Door Systems successfully brought this iconic project from design to grand opening.
SCG America is the first modern developer to break ground in the historical LA Broadway District with their new modern classic tower, Perla on Broadway. A perfect blend of new and old comes to life with the help of Architects Callison RTKL, interior design by (HBA) Hirsch Bedner Associates, and constructed by the OCLA Team @ Swinerton Builders.
The Moxy is a 7-story, 126-room hotel located in the heart of down-town. A boutique-hotel for the budget-savvy traveler that’s fresh and innovative with a stylish design. This project was another great collaboration between Door Systems and Swinerton Builders.
DSI 600 Elevator Smoke Containment Systems® were the perfect fit for these corridors that suffered from limited head room clearance. With one of the smallest headbox dimensions in the fire-rated elevator smoke curtain industry, it allowed room for the other elements hidden in the ceiling.
There were no shortcuts taken when it came to the Fire Life Safety Doors and Smoke Curtains needed to bring this 1926 California Renaissance Revival building up to code. The Historic Hotel located in Los Angeles’s South Park District was beautifully restored by Local Architect Omgivning and the Interior was envision by de-signer Kelly Wearstler.
Door Systems is humbled to be part of such a prestigious project and especially proud of the Proper Fire Doors and Smoke Curtains that where carefully designed with the AOR. The idea for the Proper Hotels is simple: Provide a hotel experience that offers proper food, proper service, and proper amenities. With that philosophy you can only expect to find the best aesthetics and quality in this boutique hotel.
Door Systems was happy to be back to in-person events this past year with ARC US Conference. This prestigious Bond Event brings together America’s Top 100 Principal Architects and Vendors in one place for 4 days and 3 nights.
The experience centers around a series of one-to-one business meetings between architects and vendors, that each have selected ahead of time, this ensures high quality interactions making the best use of the attendee’s time away from the office.
Chapman University, a top private university in California, needed a concealed solution to Elevator Smoke Containment for its latest campus addition. Musco Center for the Arts was conceived with one driving purpose: to reach the highest levels of achievement in fine arts education, production, and performance. Door Systems was proud to present the DSI 600 Elevator Smoke Curtains as a solution, yet still give the design architect the freedom to express the visual and physical connection they envision. A perfect collaboration in harmony with General Contractor McCarthy and Pfeiffer Partners.
Smoke-control systems are designed to control smoke during a fire incident in order to contain danger and allow the building to be safely evacuated.
Until recently, smoke control has been managed by the building automation system (BAS). But the trend over the last few years has been to shift that control to the fire-protection system. Read more
