How fire shutter servicing & drop tests works, and what to ask for
The fusible link, alarm interface, governor, curtain, guides and bottom rail are all inspected. 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. A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire.
Features to choose from
- 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
- Written report for your fire log book
- Closing speed and governor checks
