Fire safety law in each UK nation requires fire precautions, including fire shutters, to be maintained. 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. Each visit is recorded with a certificate-style report for your fire safety log book.

Specification options

  • Curtain, guide and bottom rail inspection
  • Closing speed and governor checks
  • Full drop test under fire signal or release
  • Fusible link and alarm interface checks
  • 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.

Questions about fire shutter servicing & drop tests in Halifax

Do you cover Halifax?

Yes. Halifax (HX1) is within our West Yorkshire coverage, along with nearby Brighouse, Huddersfield and Cleckheaton.

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.

What happens if a shutter fails the test?

We report it straight away, make it safe where possible, and give you a price for the repair so the opening is protected again.

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 long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

Will you take away my old shutter?

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