BAL FZ Bushfire Shutters - South Australia

Protecting South Australian Homes and Communities in High-Risk Bushfire Zones

Living in South Australia’s high-risk bushfire regions, from the leafy slopes of Upper Sturt and the Adelaide Hills to Hahndorf’s heritage homes and properties along the Murray River corridor, requires more than awareness. It demands proactive protection. As fire seasons grow longer and more intense, homeowners, schools, and builders across the state need advanced, compliant, and proven fire protection solutions to safeguard lives and properties.

Bushfire Control leads the way in bushfire protection innovation, offering products specifically developed and independently tested for Australia’s most extreme fire conditions, including BAL-FZ (Flame Zone) applications for residential, commercial, and educational buildings.

Our South Australian Solutions Include:

 FZ Warrior Bushfire BAL FZ Shutters

• The most compact and aesthetic headbox design on the market

• Available in over 80 Dulux powder coat colours to complement any architectural style

 Flame Zone Windows & Doors

 Fire Mesh & Eave Vents

Since the introduction of the BAL-FZ (Flame Zone) requirement in 2009, Bushfire Control has been a trusted supplier of Australian-made bushfire shutters and protection systems. The Warrior FZ range, engineered to meet AS3959 standards, provides at least 30 minutes of fire protection (-/30/-) and allows you to retain standard glazing and framing behind the shutters — avoiding costly glass upgrades in most cases*.

• Upper Sturt, Stirling, Crafers, Aldgate, and Bridgewater in the Adelaide Hills

• Hahndorf and Mount Barker, where heritage homes meet bushland

• Murray Bridge and the Murray River towns, where vegetation and weather combine to create high-risk conditions
