Choosing fire shutter servicing & drop tests for premises in Kirkcaldy

The fusible link, alarm interface, governor, curtain, guides and bottom rail are all inspected. Fire safety law in each UK nation requires fire precautions, including fire shutters, to be maintained.

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

Options we can specify

  • Full drop test under fire signal or release
  • Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
  • Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
  • Written report for your fire log book
  • Fusible link and alarm interface checks
  • Closing speed and governor checks
