Choosing fire shutter servicing & drop tests for premises in Hailsham

We can test shutters linked to the fire alarm in coordination with your alarm contractor. Each visit is recorded with a certificate-style report for your fire safety log book.

Regular testing also gives staff a chance to see how the shutter behaves and keep the area clear. A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire.

Options we can specify

  • Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
  • Fusible link and alarm interface checks
  • Written report for your fire log book
  • Closing speed and governor checks
  • Remedials priced on the day
  • Coordination with your alarm contractor

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.

How it works

  1. Describe the fault

    Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.

  2. Engineer visit

    An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

  3. Fixed repair price

    You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.

  4. Tested and reported

    Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.

Before you book in Hailsham

Do you cover Hailsham?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Hailsham. We also cover nearby Eastbourne, Seaford and Bexhill-on-Sea.

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.

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
