How fire shutters work, and what to ask for
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.
Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.
Options we can specify
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- 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.

Questions about fire shutters in Stockport
Do you cover Stockport?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Stockport. We also cover nearby Hazel Grove, Cheadle Hulme and Denton.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
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.
