Choosing fire shutter servicing & drop tests for premises in Stanford-le-Hope
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.
Each visit is recorded with a certificate-style report for your fire safety log book. A drop test checks that the shutter closes fully, at a controlled speed, when the fire signal or release is triggered.
What's included
- Written report for your fire log book
- Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
- Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
- Closing speed and governor checks
- Fusible link and alarm interface checks
- Full drop test under fire signal or release
