How fire shutters work, and what to ask for
Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.
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.
Features to choose from
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant

Fire shutters: common questions
Do you cover Welwyn Garden City?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Welwyn Garden City and the AL8 district, as part of our coverage across Hertfordshire.
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.
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.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
