What to know about fire shutters in Dunoon
Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.
Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.
Features to choose from
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss

Fire shutters: common questions
Do you cover Dunoon?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Dunoon and the PA23 district, as part of our coverage across Argyll & Bute.
What rating do I need?
The rating must match the fire-resisting wall the shutter is in, which is set by the building's fire strategy or fire risk assessment. We work from that, or from your fire engineer's specification.
Do you certify fire shutters?
The fire rating belongs to the manufacturer's tested product. We supply certified shutters with their documentation and install them to the manufacturer's instructions.
Will a fire shutter close in a power cut?
Fire shutters are designed to close on loss of power or on a fire signal, usually by gravity with a governed speed, so they fail safe.
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.
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.
