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. Each visit is recorded with a certificate-style report for your fire safety log book.

Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters. A drop test checks that the shutter closes fully, at a controlled speed, when the fire signal or release is triggered.

Specification options

  • Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
  • Fusible link and alarm interface checks
  • Remedials priced on the day
  • Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
  • Closing speed and governor checks
  • Coordination with your alarm contractor

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.

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover West Bridgford?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutter servicing & drop tests in West Bridgford and the NG2 district, as part of our coverage across Nottinghamshire.

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.

Will the test set off my fire alarm?

We coordinate with you and your alarm contractor so the shutter can be tested without unwanted alarm calls.

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.

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.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
