What to know about fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Welshpool

Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for testing at least once a year, and more often for busy or critical shutters. A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire.

Each visit is recorded with a certificate-style report for your fire safety log book. Faults found on test are reported straight away with a price for the remedial work.

Specification options

  • Remedials priced on the day
  • Coordination with your alarm contractor
  • Fusible link and alarm interface checks
  • Full drop test under fire signal or release
  • Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
  • Closing speed and governor checks

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.

Questions about fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Welshpool

Do you cover Welshpool?

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

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
