In all smoke control systems, compartmentation is a key concern. This can be accomplished by employing smoke and fire curtains. These are heat-resistant hangings that fall from above when a smoke control system is triggered, dividing and compartmentalizing the fire zone.

Smoke curtains form a physical barrier that can be fixed or movable. Movable systems have the benefit of being virtually unnoticeable until needed because they are held retracted at a high level. Moveable smoke curtains are typically installed at a high level, much above head height, and do not typically descend to ground level.

When it is important to contain both the fire and the smoke, a fire curtain might be employed. They serve as a fire barrier between places. Its major function is to prevent fire spread, and it is often utilised to guard an escape path.
