Fire shutters in Farnworth: the essentials

Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.

Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs. Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly.

What's included

  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover

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 Farnworth?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Farnworth and the BL4 district, as part of our coverage across Greater Manchester.

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.

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 I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.

What warranty do I get?

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