Fire shutters in Musselburgh: the essentials

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

What's included

  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover

Before you book in Musselburgh

Do you cover Musselburgh?

Yes. Musselburgh (EH21) is within our Edinburgh & the Lothians coverage, along with nearby Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes and Dunfermline.

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.

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.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

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