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. 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. We can test shutters linked to the fire alarm in coordination with your alarm contractor.
What's included
- Written report for your fire log book
- Full drop test under fire signal or release
- Closing speed and governor checks
- Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
- Fusible link and alarm interface checks
- Remedials priced on the day
