What to know about fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Portadown
A drop test checks that the shutter closes fully, at a controlled speed, when the fire signal or release is triggered. 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. Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters.
Specification options
- Written report for your fire log book
- Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
- Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
- Remedials priced on the day
