How fire shutter servicing & drop tests works, and what to ask for

We can test shutters linked to the fire alarm in coordination with your alarm contractor. Regular testing also gives staff a chance to see how the shutter behaves and keep the area clear. Fire safety law in each UK nation requires fire precautions, including fire shutters, to be maintained.

Counter-height and kitchen fire shutters need the same testing as large shutters. Each visit is recorded with a certificate-style report for your fire safety log book.

What's included

  • Written report for your fire log book
  • Full drop test under fire signal or release
  • Fusible link and alarm interface checks
  • Coordination with your alarm contractor
  • Remedials priced on the day
  • Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection

  2. Engineer visit

    An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

  3. Fixed repair price

    You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.

  4. Tested and reported

    Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.

Fire shutter servicing & drop tests: common questions

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.

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.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
