Fire shutters in Letchworth Garden City: the essentials
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.
Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter. Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs.
Features to choose from
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup

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.

Fire shutters: common questions
Do you cover Letchworth Garden City?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Letchworth Garden City and the SG6 district, as part of our coverage across Hertfordshire.
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 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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
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.
