Fire shutter servicing & drop tests in East Kilbride: the essentials
Faults found on test are reported straight away with a price for the remedial work. Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters.
The fusible link, alarm interface, governor, curtain, guides and bottom rail are all inspected. A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire.
What's included
- Written report for your fire log book
- Closing speed and governor checks
- Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
- Coordination with your alarm contractor
- Fusible link and alarm interface checks
- Full drop test under fire signal or release
