Fire shutters in Northampton: the essentials

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.

Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.

What's included

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

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.

Before you book in Northampton

Do you cover Northampton?

Yes. Northampton (NN1) is within our Northamptonshire coverage, along with nearby Wellingborough, Daventry and Rushden.

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.

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 repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
