OVER 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE

Our solutions assist to create large open spaces, ventilation in buildings and smoke management.

Need Help with Fire Compliance & Architectural Design?

Don’t leave compliance or design to chance.

Our experienced technical team is here to guide you through every step, ensuring your project meets all fire safety regulations and architectural standards from the start. Reach out to our technical department today and avoid costly design or compliance mistakes later.

At Smoke Control our structure allows us to work on a variety of project sizes at one time. Please see our Capability Statement for more details.

Our reach covers all Australia Cities and regional areas. Our mobile workforce is not only experienced in adapting to projects in even the most remote of areas, they also love it! The most famous project still discussed internally is one where our technicians had to be helicoptered in to install product on the side of a cliff in Tasmania.

COMPLIANCE V DESIGN

To Fire Engineers & Architects:
Too often, we see projects delayed or derailed by designs that simply don’t work in practice.

We see fire engineering reports and architectural drawings that cause major compliance issues at the tail end of a project, leading to costly redesigns, delays, and frustration for everyone involved.

Let’s change that.

Reach out for a no-obligation discussion with our technical department. We’ll help you identify potential pitfalls early, acting as a bridge between the Architect and Fire Engineer to ensure your designs goals are achieved and compliant—before they hit the site.

No surprises. No stress. Just smooth delivery

OUR FULL LIFE CYCLE SERVICE


Our specialists do so much more than supply fire & smoke control equipment. We integrate engineering insights, hands-on testing, and technical know-how to create fire and smoke systems that respect both compliance needs and your overall design vision.


DESIGN

We begin with an in-house review of your building’s layout and potential hazards. Our engineers test ideas thoroughly, aiming for fire & smoke systems that handle both compliance demands and site-specific needs. The result? A fire and smoke control plan that fits, keeps you on track, and preserves design intent.

SUPPLY

Once we finalise the blueprint, our team sources each component from trusted global suppliers, verifying that every piece meets your building’s specifications and our high standards. We favour reliable performance over quick fixes, letting you see what’s shipping and when. Because we manage logistics in-house, we can address changes or questions quickly, avoiding last-minute complications.


Image
INSTALL
Our fully trained and approved site crews work directly with your project managers to fit each product without undercutting the original design. We care deeply about open communication, making adjustments on the spot when needed, and cross-checking every detail at the end for consistent quality.

Image
MAINTAIN
Every fire and smoke control system needs periodic care. Our proactive maintenance checks spot small faults before they escalate and confirm that your setup still meets current regulations. We keep replacement parts handy, cutting down repair time. After each visit, you’ll get a clear report on system performance, helping you budget and plan more consciously.

Have you ever read our disclaimer, which has been around for as long as us?

“Smoke Control will not be held liable if recipients of fire test reports and other technical documentation misinterpret and wrongly use products and services…”

You might wonder why we don’t hand out test reports for every single product right on our website.

  • We prefer to supply the exact documentation needed for a specific project once we know its unique design and compliance requirements.
  • Smoke Control prides itself on its engineering, fire and smoke control expertise in our field. We don’t and never have oversold our systems. Our goal is to provide the most accurate and reliable solution for your project, which we believe can only occur through upfront, transparent discussions.
  • Products, particularly those that do not have supporting Product Standards, are more than just the fire rating. Specifying a product simply because the FRL in the report matches the Building Code is misleading and leaves the Fitness for Purpose open to interpretation.
  • We often see Architectural specifications that do not align with the Fire Engineers report and vice versa, which only leads to conflict and surprise costs at the end of the project. We have two full time engineers in our technical department to assist customers daily, with obligation free technical assistance – why not use it?
Image
  • Smoke Control holds over 3000 approvals. It is not realistic or feasible to provide and maintain all of these on our website.
  • As part of our process, we provide a free service to assist design teams in defining the correct specification based on the project’s needs. Once that specification aligns with current approvals, we issue the relevant test report(s) to the appropriate stakeholders.

  • Raising the Bar in Fire & Smoke Control

    We believe safer buildings start with better-informed professionals. That’s why we don’t keep our technical expertise to ourselves. We’re committed to lifting industry standards by actively empowering everyone from architects to fire engineers with our knowledge, helping create safer spaces, not just compliant ones. Some best practices we promote include:

    • Running targeted trials that mirror actual site conditions
    • Guiding teams through the finer points of fire engineering
    • Partnering with reliable manufacturers who meet our strict benchmarks
    • Verifying on-site workmanship to avoid hidden vulnerabilities
    • Providing proactive service plans to extend system lifespan
    • Monitoring rule changes and sharing insights to keep your building up to current standards

    Explore our case studies to see how we put these top industry standards into practice.

    WHY PARTNER WITH SMOKE CONTROL?


    UNCOMPROMISING
    QUALITY
    Our approach goes much further than basic compliance checklists. Every product undergoes rigorous trials to confirm durability, heat tolerance, and material integrity, so you can count on stable protection.
    ENGINEERING
    EXPERTISE
    Our engineers design fire and smoke control systems grounded in real technical evidence. Decades of R&D guide each recommendation, ensuring we address every nuance of fire and smoke safety.
    HONEST
    PRACTICES
    We’re transparent about costs, timelines, and testing outcomes. If an approach isn’t right for your project, we’ll say so. Our priority is long-term trust, not quick wins or hollow promises.
    DEDICATED
    R&D
    We go above and beyond industry norms in R&D to pre-empt problems and refine existing solutions. That means you benefit from forward-thinking solutions, rather than sticking to outdated or insufficient methods.
    DEPENDABLE
    PROCESS
    We provide consistent quality, handling everything from design and supply to installation and maintenance (in-house or through approved partners). This saves time, reduces cost overruns, and prevents finger-pointing between multiple contractors
    FUTURE
    READINESS
    Codes and regulations evolve, so we stay on top of things. Our team monitors industry shifts, updates training, and fine-tunes products. We’ll help you adapt quickly and compliantly, keeping your building prepared for tomorrow.
    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    The earlier, the better. Involving us at the design stage means we can help you factor in fire and smoke systems alongside architectural and mechanical considerations. This teamwork reduces the need for retrofits or costly changes down the line.
