Choosing fire shutters for premises in Witham
Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.
They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat. Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering.
Options we can specify
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification

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.

Questions about fire shutters in Witham
Do you cover Witham?
Yes. Witham (CM8) is within our Essex coverage, along with nearby Maldon, Braintree and Chelmsford.
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 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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
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.
