What to know about fire shutters in Stevenage
Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering.
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.
Specification options
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Governed closing speed for safety

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 Stevenage?
Yes. Stevenage (SG1) is within our Hertfordshire coverage, along with nearby Hitchin, Letchworth Garden City and Welwyn Garden City.
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.
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.
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.
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.
