Choosing fire shutter servicing & drop tests for premises in Dundee & Angus

Faults found on test are reported straight away with a price for the remedial work. Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters. 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. Fire safety law in each UK nation requires fire precautions, including fire shutters, to be maintained.

Specification options

  • Full drop test under fire signal or release
  • Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
  • Coordination with your alarm contractor
  • Remedials priced on the day
  • Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
  • Written report for your fire log book

Fire shutter servicing & drop tests: common questions

Will the test set off my fire alarm?

We coordinate with you and your alarm contractor so the shutter can be tested without unwanted alarm calls.

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 long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

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.
