What to know about fire shutters in Newton Stewart

Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.

Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation. They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat.

Features to choose from

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

Before you book in Newton Stewart

Do you cover Newton Stewart?

Yes. Newton Stewart (DG8) is within our Dumfries & Galloway coverage, along with nearby Kirkcudbright and Stranraer.

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.

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 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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
