What to know about fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Larne

Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters. Faults found on test are reported straight away with a price for the remedial work.

Counter-height and kitchen fire shutters need the same testing as large shutters. A drop test checks that the shutter closes fully, at a controlled speed, when the fire signal or release is triggered.

Features to choose from

  • Coordination with your alarm contractor
  • Written report for your fire log book
  • Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
  • Full drop test under fire signal or release
  • Closing speed and governor checks
  • Fusible link and alarm interface checks

Rules in Northern Ireland

Fire safety law and fire shutters

In Northern Ireland the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 require the appropriate person to keep fire precautions, including fire shutters, maintained in efficient working order.

How it works

  1. Describe the fault

    Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.

  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

Do you cover Larne?

Yes. Larne (BT40) is within our County Antrim coverage, along with nearby Carrickfergus, Newtownabbey and Bangor (County Down).

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.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
