Fire shutters in Barrow-in-Furness: the essentials
Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter. Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly.
Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering. Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation.
What's included
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss

Rules in England

Fire shutters: common questions
Do you cover Barrow-in-Furness?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Barrow-in-Furness and the LA14 district, as part of our coverage across Cumbria.
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.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
