Fire escapes, which ensure that the building is evacuated safely in the event of a fire, are among the indispensable safety elements of today's modern buildings. Serving as the most critical part of the building that opens to the outside world after the fire door, fire escapes have to meet certain standards. As LKS Mekanik, we offer fully compliant, durable and safe fire escape solutions to keep your life safety at the highest level.

In a fire that starts inside, smoke quickly engulfs the entire building and a layer of toxic smoke that prevents vision occurs. In this case, it is vital to leave the building immediately. Fire escapes are mandatory in buildings with a certain number of floors and height. Since elevator use is risky during a fire, fire escapes are the primary escape route for those in the building.

For this reason, it is an indispensable condition for life safety that there are fire escapes that are durable and wide enough to safely carry all people in the building, whether made of metal or concrete. The Fire Escape Regulation also contains important provisions on this issue.

LKS Mekanik Fire Escape Types: Special Solutions for Your Building

Fire escape types are generally shaped according to the architectural structure of the building. The two most common types are circular and Z-type fire escapes. The width of the building's outdoor area is also a determining factor in the design of the fire escape.

The construction date of the building, its intended use, the number of people working or residing on each floor, the height of the building and the dimensions of the area allocated for the stairs are the most important factors in deciding which type of fire escape will be used. As LKS Mekanik, we carry out the design and application of the fire escape that is most suitable for the characteristics of your building and fully complies with the regulations.

Z-type fire escapes, as the name suggests, are angular stairs that descend in a zig-zag shape. Circular fire escapes, on the other hand, are designed in a spiral shape. The type of fire escape used is of great importance for the building's structural inspection and fire department approvals. LKS Mekanik helps you to complete these approval processes smoothly in all its projects.

LKS Mekanik and Fire Escape Regulation

Both fire safety companies and companies engaged in building construction must have complete knowledge of all articles in the Fire Escape Regulation. The first thing to consider is the height of the building and how many fire escapes are mandatory. If there is a single fire escape obligation, it is decided which material it will be made of.

It is obligatory to comply with TSE standards in all stages from the height of the stair steps to the way they are attached or fixed to the building. As LKS Mekanik, we meticulously comply with these regulations in all our fire escape projects.

As required by the provisions of the regulation, fire department approval must be obtained for the fire escape to be placed in the building. After the construction of the staircase, the fire brigade teams carry out an inspection and check whether there are any obstacles that will make it difficult to leave the building in case of fire, and whether people will be evacuated without harming each other or being affected by smoke. As LKS Mekanik, we act in a way that will facilitate the fire department approval in our design and application processes.
