How fire shutters work, and what to ask for
Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.
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.
What's included
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- 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.

Before you book in Rawtenstall

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.
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.
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 you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
