Fire shutters in Dundee & Angus: the essentials

The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design. Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.

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.

Options we can specify

  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions

Rules in Scotland

Fire safety law and fire shutters

In Scotland the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 require the duty holder to keep fire safety measures, including fire shutters, maintained in efficient working order and good repair.

Safety of powered shutters

Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In Scotland electrical work in buildings must also meet the Scottish building standards, and is carried out and certified by a qualified electrician.

Before you book in Dundee & Angus

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.

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.

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
