What to know about fire shutters in Portsmouth

Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly. 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. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.

What's included

  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant

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. Tell us about the opening

    Send the postcode, a rough size and a photo if you have one, using the form or a call.

    We measure, check the structure, power supply and planning position, and talk through options.

  3. Written fixed price

    You get a written quote with the product, finish, controls and price before anything is ordered.

  4. Made, fitted and handed over

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

Before you book in Portsmouth

Do you cover Portsmouth?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Portsmouth. We also cover nearby Gosport, Fareham and Ryde.

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.

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.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.

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.
