Fire shutter servicing & drop tests in County Londonderry: the essentials

Each visit is recorded with a certificate-style report for your fire safety log book. Counter-height and kitchen fire shutters need the same testing as large shutters. Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters.

The fusible link, alarm interface, governor, curtain, guides and bottom rail are all inspected. We can test shutters linked to the fire alarm in coordination with your alarm contractor.

Options we can specify

  • Fusible link and alarm interface checks
  • Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
  • Written report for your fire log book
  • Closing speed and governor checks
  • Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
  • Full drop test under fire signal or release

Before you book in County Londonderry

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

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

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
