Fire shutters in Glasgow: the essentials
Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs. 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. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.
Options we can specify
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant

Before you book in Glasgow
Do you cover Glasgow?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Glasgow and the G1 district, as part of our coverage across Glasgow & Dunbartonshire.
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.
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.
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.
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.
