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

We can test shutters linked to the fire alarm in coordination with your alarm contractor. 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. Regular testing also gives staff a chance to see how the shutter behaves and keep the area clear.

Features to choose from

  • Counter, hatch and large fire shutters
  • Coordination with your alarm contractor
  • Closing speed and governor checks
  • Full drop test under fire signal or release
  • Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
  • Written report for your fire log book

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.

Fire shutter servicing & drop tests: common questions

Do you cover Rugby?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Rugby and the CV21 district, as part of our coverage across Warwickshire.

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.

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.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
