Fire shutter servicing & drop tests in High Wycombe: the essentials
The fusible link, alarm interface, governor, curtain, guides and bottom rail are all inspected. A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire.
Each visit is recorded with a certificate-style report for your fire safety log book. Counter-height and kitchen fire shutters need the same testing as large shutters.
Options we can specify
- Coordination with your alarm contractor
- Full drop test under fire signal or release
- Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
- Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
- Remedials priced on the day
- Closing speed and governor checks

Rules in England
Fire safety law and fire shutters
In England fire shutters form part of a building's fire precautions under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The responsible person must keep them maintained in efficient working order and good repair, which in practice means regular drop testing with written records.

Will the test set off my fire alarm?
We coordinate with you and your alarm contractor so the shutter can be tested without unwanted alarm calls.
Is fire shutter testing a legal requirement?
Fire shutters are part of a building's fire precautions, and the fire safety law in each UK nation requires those precautions to be maintained in efficient working order. Regular drop testing with records is how that is shown.
How often should fire shutters be drop tested?
Most manufacturers and industry guidance call for at least one test and service a year, with more frequent checks for busy or critical shutters. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and your fire risk assessment.
Are your prices fixed?
