How fire shutters work, and what to ask for
Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.
Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat.
Specification options
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant

Your questions answered
Do you cover Ayr?
Yes. Ayr (KA7) is within our Ayrshire coverage, along with nearby Irvine and Newton Mearns.
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.
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.
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.
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.
