How fire shutters work, and what to ask for

The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.

Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering.

What's included

  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant

Rules in England

Fire safety law and fire shutters

In England fire shutters form part of a building's fire precautions under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The responsible person must keep them maintained in efficient working order and good repair, which in practice means regular drop testing with written records.

Fire shutters: common questions

Do you cover Rayleigh?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Rayleigh. We also cover nearby South Benfleet, Wickford and Pitsea.

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.

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.

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.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
