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.

Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter. Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly.

Options we can specify

  • Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover
  • 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.

Before you book in Huyton

Do you cover Huyton?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Huyton and the L36 district, as part of our coverage across Merseyside.

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 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.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
