Choosing fire shutters for premises in Altrincham
The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.
They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.
Specification options
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Altrincham?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Altrincham and the WA14 district, as part of our coverage across Greater Manchester.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
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.
