What to know about fire shutters in Aberystwyth

A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.

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

Features to choose from

  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant

Rules in Wales

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Aberystwyth?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Aberystwyth and the SY23 district, as part of our coverage across Dyfed.

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.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

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