Choosing fire shutters for premises in Borehamwood

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

Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.

Options we can specify

  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Borehamwood?

Yes. Borehamwood (WD6) is within our Hertfordshire coverage, along with nearby Barnet, Bushey and Potters Bar.

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.

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 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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
