How fire shutter servicing & drop tests works, and what to ask for

Counter-height and kitchen fire shutters need the same testing as large shutters. Fire safety law in each UK nation requires fire precautions, including fire shutters, to be maintained.

Faults found on test are reported straight away with a price for the remedial work. 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
  • Fusible link and alarm interface checks
  • Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
  • Full drop test under fire signal or release
  • Remedials priced on the day
  • Written report for your fire log book

Rules in Wales

Fire safety law and fire shutters

In Wales the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 also applies. Fire shutters are part of the fire precautions, and the responsible person must keep them maintained in efficient working order, with regular drop testing and 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.

Fire shutter servicing & drop tests: common questions

Do you cover Holyhead?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Holyhead. We also cover nearby Caernarfon.

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.

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.

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.

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.
