Other than SmokeGuard, any other reputable manufacturers?

I just completed a project for the Army with a different type of smoke curtain using Section 10 44 23 - Fire Protective Smoke Curtain. It was an unusual condition enclosing a monumental stairway.
Had to develop from scratch.

On at least one project, we included a smoke curtain at a monumental stair in the same section as the all glass guardrails that surrounded the floor opening and stair.

The rational being that the smoke curtain was detailed using the same parts (glass, U-channel and setting gaskets, and miscellaneous trims) used on the guardrails, except of course, they were hanging from the ceiling.

It made an interesting section drawing, with the guardrail, floor/ceiling cross-section, fascia trims, and the smoke barrier, with the glass on the guardrail and barrier precisely aligned on-center.

Seems like everyone responding has a different idea of what "Smoke Draft Curtains" refers to. If you're talking about SmokeGuard's rolling overhead curtains used to protect elevator hoistway entrances, I use 078713 "Elevator Hoistway Smoke Containment System".
