Fire shutters in Newton Aycliffe: the essentials

Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly. Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs.

Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering.

Specification options

  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss

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 Newton Aycliffe

Do you cover Newton Aycliffe?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Newton Aycliffe and the DL5 district, as part of our coverage across County Durham.

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.

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.
