How fire shutter servicing & drop tests works, and what to ask for
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.
We can test shutters linked to the fire alarm in coordination with your alarm contractor. A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire.
What's included
- Closing speed and governor checks
- Written report for your fire log book
- Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
- Coordination with your alarm contractor
- Fusible link and alarm interface checks
- Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection

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.

Before you book in Shepherds Bush
Do you cover Shepherds Bush?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Shepherds Bush and the W12 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
