Fire shutters in Blackburn: the essentials
Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.
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.
Specification options
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss

Rules in England
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Questions about fire shutters in Blackburn
Do you cover Blackburn?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Blackburn and the BB1 district, as part of our coverage across Lancashire.
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.
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.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
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.
