Last year, Ellard refreshed its JM range of fire shutter and industrial door motors, reinforcing its commitment to providing reliable, easy-to-specify solutions for installers and manufacturers across the industry.
The refresh focused on improving consistency across the range and making it easier for customers to identify the right motor, control system and fire safety components for their application. It also reaffirmed the JM platform's position as a trusted solution for everything from compact fire shutters to large industrial door systems.
This year, that journey continues with the introduction of two new additions to the family: the JM3000 and JM4000.
These new operators extend the capabilities of the JM range even further, enabling manufacturers and installers to specify complete solutions for larger and heavier fire shutter installations than ever before.
Meeting the Demands of Larger Fire Shutters
Fire shutters are used in an increasingly diverse range of buildings, from retail premises and warehouses to manufacturing facilities and large commercial developments.
As building designs evolve, so too do the requirements placed on fire protection systems. Larger openings often require larger fire shutters, creating a demand for operators capable of handling increased door weights while maintaining reliable day-to-day operation and dependable performance in an emergency.
Recognising this need, Ellard has expanded the JM platform with the introduction of the JM3000 and JM4000.
Completing the JM Family
One of the key strengths of the JM range has always been its scalability.
From the compact JM150, designed for smaller fire shutters, through to the JM2200 for larger industrial systems, the range provides a clear progression of solutions for different door sizes and operating requirements.
The addition of the JM3000 and JM4000 now allows the platform to support some of the largest fire shutter installations in the market.
Delivering up to 765Nm and 825Nm of torque respectively, these operators have been developed to provide the additional power required for larger shutter assemblies while maintaining compatibility with the wider JM ecosystem.
For manufacturers, this means a single product family can now be specified across an even broader range of projects, simplifying product selection and reducing complexity when designing fire shutter systems.
Fire Safety at the Core
While the new motors provide increased capability, the primary objective remains unchanged: reliable fire protection.
The JM3000 and JM4000 have been designed to integrate with Ellard's wider fire safety offering, including the FCP-03 fire control panel and compatible fire release systems.
This allows installers and manufacturers to create complete fire shutter solutions that combine everyday operational performance with dependable fire safety functionality.
By ensuring compatibility across the entire range, Ellard continues to offer a joined-up approach to fire shutter specification, helping customers source motors, controls and fire safety products from a single supplier.
Investing in the Future
The launch of the JM3000 and JM4000 demonstrates Ellard's ongoing investment in the JM platform and the fire shutter market.
While last year's refresh strengthened the existing range, these latest additions expand what the platform is capable of delivering.
The result is a comprehensive family of operators that now provides solutions for everything from compact shopfront fire shutters to some of the largest fire shutter installations found in industrial and commercial environments.
As fire shutter requirements continue to evolve, Ellard remains focused on providing practical, reliable solutions that help manufacturers and installers meet the demands of modern building design.
With the addition of the JM3000 and JM4000, the JM range is now better equipped than ever to provide a solution for fire shutters of every size.
