How fire shutters work, and what to ask for
Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs. Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering.
The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.
Options we can specify
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent

Rules in England

Your questions answered
Do you cover Canterbury?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Canterbury. We also cover nearby Whitstable, Herne Bay and Faversham.
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.
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.
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 repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
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.
