Choosing fire shutters for premises in County Antrim

The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design. Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.

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

  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover

Rules in Northern Ireland

Fire safety law and fire shutters

In Northern Ireland the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 require the appropriate person to keep fire precautions, including fire shutters, maintained in efficient working order.

Safety of powered shutters

Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations, by a qualified electrician. Northern Ireland has its own building regulations, and any building control requirement for the work is confirmed with your council.

Questions about fire shutters in County Antrim

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.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
