Fire shutters in Consett: the essentials

Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.

They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat. Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs.

Features to choose from

  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Questions about fire shutters in Consett

Do you cover Consett?

Yes. Consett (DH8) is within our County Durham coverage, along with nearby Stanley, Chester-le-Street and Durham.

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.

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 you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
