Choosing fire shutter servicing & drop tests for premises in Bearsden

A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire. Fire safety law in each UK nation requires fire precautions, including fire shutters, to be maintained.

A drop test checks that the shutter closes fully, at a controlled speed, when the fire signal or release is triggered. The fusible link, alarm interface, governor, curtain, guides and bottom rail are all inspected.

Specification options

  • Fusible link and alarm interface checks
  • Remedials priced on the day
  • Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
  • Full drop test under fire signal or release
  • Written report for your fire log book
  • Closing speed and governor checks

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.

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.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
