How fire shutters work, and what to ask for

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.

Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter. Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering.

Specification options

  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Governed closing speed for safety

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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Eltham?

Yes. Eltham (SE9) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Blackheath, Welling and Catford.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
