Choosing fire shutter servicing & drop tests for premises in Heanor
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.
A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire. Regular testing also gives staff a chance to see how the shutter behaves and keep the area clear.
Options we can specify
- Full drop test under fire signal or release
- Coordination with your alarm contractor
- Closing speed and governor checks
- Written report for your fire log book
- Remedials priced on the day
- Fusible link and alarm interface checks

Rules in England
Fire safety law and fire shutters
In England fire shutters form part of a building's fire precautions under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The responsible person must keep them maintained in efficient working order and good repair, which in practice means regular drop testing with written records.
