Trash or Linen chute system intake doors must be sealed to control drafts. Doors that do not automatically latch do not seal on their own, and are considered non-compliant and a fire hazard. The chute column has a natural, controlled upward draft. A chute with an uncontained draft will act as a chimney during a fire, a major hazard.
Our doors are code compliant and high quality, with a guarantee of trouble-free medium-duty use for 5 years✝︎. We sell all types of doors for all sizes of chutes.
Our Door Management Systems integrate with HUGS infant safety technology – protection for your nursery or hospital to keep babies safe. This smart building technology uses a network of tracking systems to locate and guarantee the security of any infant on premises. Integration of this system with waste and linen chute systems provides additional protection and alerting capabilities where it matters the most.
The chute systems we install are fully NFPA 82 and International Building Code certified, code compliant, and fire safe. Each chute system we design is specifically for your application and is certified by a Professional Engineer to ensure optimum safety and disposal efficiency.
The Chute Company chute systems are engineered to International Fire Code with a minimum fire rating of 2 hours. Our systems are designed to ASME standards and built out of heavy duty durable alloy steel to resist impact damage. The systems we install are insurable and built to last for the life of the building.
