Fire shutters in Dartford: the essentials

The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design. Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering.

Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.

Options we can specify

  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover

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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Before you book in Dartford

Do you cover Dartford?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Dartford. We also cover nearby Bexley, Swanley and Welling.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
