Choosing fire shutters for premises in St Helens
A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.
Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering. Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly.
Specification options
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Governed closing speed for safety

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.

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 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.

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.
