How fire shutters work, and what to ask for

Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.

A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.

Options we can specify

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

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Westhoughton?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Westhoughton and the BL5 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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

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