How fire shutters work, and what to ask for

Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly.

Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.

Options we can specify

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

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.

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Oadby?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Oadby. We also cover nearby Wigston, Market Harborough and Loughborough.

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.

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 details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.

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.
