Choosing fire shutter servicing & drop tests for premises in Wisbech
We can test shutters linked to the fire alarm in coordination with your alarm contractor. A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire.
The fusible link, alarm interface, governor, curtain, guides and bottom rail are all inspected. A drop test checks that the shutter closes fully, at a controlled speed, when the fire signal or release is triggered.
Specification options
- Written report for your fire log book
- Remedials priced on the day
- Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
- Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
- Closing speed and governor checks
- Fusible link and alarm interface 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.

Before you book in Wisbech
Do you cover Wisbech?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Wisbech. We also cover nearby March, King's Lynn and Spalding.
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.
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.
What happens if a shutter fails the test?
We report it straight away, make it safe where possible, and give you a price for the repair so the opening is protected again.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
