What to know about fire shutters in Edinburgh

Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.

Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.

What's included

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

Questions about fire shutters in Edinburgh

Do you cover Edinburgh?

Yes. Edinburgh (EH1) is within our Edinburgh & the Lothians coverage, along with nearby Musselburgh, Kirkcaldy and Dunfermline.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

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

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.
