How fire shutters work, and what to ask for

Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.

The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.

Specification options

  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Your questions answered

Do you cover South Benfleet?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in South Benfleet and the SS7 district, as part of our coverage across Essex.

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.

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.

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
