What to know about fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Renfrew
A drop test checks that the shutter closes fully, at a controlled speed, when the fire signal or release is triggered. Faults found on test are reported straight away with a price for the remedial work.
A shutter that sticks, closes too fast or stops short can leave an opening unprotected in a fire. Counter-height and kitchen fire shutters need the same testing as large shutters.
What's included
- Full drop test under fire signal or release
- Written report for your fire log book
- Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
- Coordination with your alarm contractor
- Remedials priced on the day
- Fusible link and alarm interface checks
