How fire shutters work, and what to ask for

They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.

Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.

Options we can specify

  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover

Rules in England

Fire safety law and fire shutters

In England fire shutters form part of a building's fire precautions under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The responsible person must keep them maintained in efficient working order and good repair, which in practice means regular drop testing with written records.

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.

Questions about fire shutters in Heswall

Do you cover Heswall?

Yes. Heswall (CH60) is within our Merseyside coverage, along with nearby Bebington, Birkenhead and Wallasey.

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 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.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
