Fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Dundee: the essentials
Each visit is recorded with a certificate-style report for your fire safety log book. Fire safety law in each UK nation requires fire precautions, including fire shutters, to be maintained.
Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters. A drop test checks that the shutter closes fully, at a controlled speed, when the fire signal or release is triggered.
Features to choose from
- Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
- Coordination with your alarm contractor
- Closing speed and governor checks
- Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
- Written report for your fire log book
- Full drop test under fire signal or release
