Choosing fire shutters for premises in Hove
The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.
A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter. 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
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions

Rules in England
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.

Before you book in Hove
Do you cover Hove?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Hove and the BN3 district, as part of our coverage across East Sussex.
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.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
