Fire shutters in Failsworth: the essentials

Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.

Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation. Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs.

Options we can specify

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

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.

Before you book in Failsworth

Do you cover Failsworth?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Failsworth and the M35 district, as part of our coverage across Greater Manchester.

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.

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.

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.
