Fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Montrose: the essentials
Counter-height and kitchen fire shutters need the same testing as large shutters. Each visit is recorded with a certificate-style report for your fire safety log book.
Faults found on test are reported straight away with a price for the remedial work. A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire.
Specification options
- Full drop test under fire signal or release
- Closing speed and governor checks
- Coordination with your alarm contractor
- Remedials priced on the day
- Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
- Fusible link and alarm interface checks

Your questions answered
Do you cover Montrose?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Montrose and the DD10 district, as part of our coverage across Dundee & Angus.
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.
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.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
