What to know about fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Hayes

Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters. 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. Counter-height and kitchen fire shutters need the same testing as large shutters.

What's included

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

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 Hayes

Do you cover Hayes?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Hayes and the UB3 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.

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.

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.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
