Fire shutters in Barnet: the essentials
Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat.
Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.
What's included
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- 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.

Before you book in Barnet
Do you cover Barnet?
Yes. Barnet (EN5) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Potters Bar, Borehamwood and Finchley.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
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.
