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. Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters.
We can test shutters linked to the fire alarm in coordination with your alarm contractor. The fusible link, alarm interface, governor, curtain, guides and bottom rail are all inspected.
Options we can specify
- Closing speed and governor checks
- Remedials priced on the day
- Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
- Written report for your fire log book
- Fusible link and alarm interface checks
- 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.
