Fire shutters in Strood: the essentials
They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.
Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter. Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly.
Features to choose from
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions

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.

Fire shutters: common questions
Do you cover Strood?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Strood. We also cover nearby Rochester, Chatham and Gillingham.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
