What to know about fire shutters in Pimlico

They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat. Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs.

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

Features to choose from

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

Rules in England

Fire safety law and fire shutters

In England fire shutters form part of a building's fire precautions under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The responsible person must keep them maintained in efficient working order and good repair, which in practice means regular drop testing with written records.

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.

Questions about fire shutters in Pimlico

Do you cover Pimlico?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Pimlico. We also cover nearby Westminster, Battersea and Chelsea.

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.

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 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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

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.
