How fire shutters work, and what to ask for

A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.

They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat. Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly.

Features to choose from

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

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 Middleton?

Yes. Middleton (M24) is within our Greater Manchester coverage, along with nearby Chadderton, Heywood and Royton.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
