What to know about fire shutters in Litherland
Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation.
They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.
Specification options
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Commissioning and drop test on handover
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions

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.

Fire shutters: common questions
Do you cover Litherland?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Litherland and the L21 district, as part of our coverage across Merseyside.
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.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
