What to know about fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Peckham
A drop test checks that the shutter closes fully, at a controlled speed, when the fire signal or release is triggered. Counter-height and kitchen fire shutters need the same testing as large shutters.
Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters. Regular testing also gives staff a chance to see how the shutter behaves and keep the area clear.
Features to choose from
- Written report for your fire log book
- Fusible link and alarm interface checks
- Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
- Closing speed and governor checks
- Remedials priced on the day
- 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.
