Fire shutters in Boston: the essentials

A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.

Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.

Options we can specify

  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification

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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Fire shutters: common questions

Do you cover Boston?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Boston. We also cover nearby Spalding, Skegness and Wisbech.

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.

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 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.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
