How fire shutters work, and what to ask for

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

Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly. Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering.

Features to choose from

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

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Manchester and the M1 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.

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.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.

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.
