How fire shutters work, and what to ask for

Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering. 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. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.

What's included

  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Thamesmead?

Yes. Thamesmead (SE28) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Barking, Welling and Becontree.

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.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
