Fire shutters in Darlington: the essentials

Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs.

Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.

Features to choose from

  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent

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.

Before you book in Darlington

Do you cover Darlington?

Yes. Darlington (DL3) is within our County Durham coverage, along with nearby Newton Aycliffe, Stockton-on-Tees and Thornaby-on-Tees.

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.

How often should a fire shutter be tested?

Fire shutters are part of a building's fire precautions, so they must be kept in working order. Manufacturers and industry guidance typically call for a drop test and service at least once a year, and more often where they are used heavily.

Will you take away my old shutter?

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

What warranty do I get?

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