Fire shutters in Gravesend: the essentials

Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. 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. Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation.

Specification options

  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent

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.

Questions about fire shutters in Gravesend

Do you cover Gravesend?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Gravesend and the DA12 district, as part of our coverage across Kent.

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 your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
