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.
Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.
What's included
- 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
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss

Your questions answered
Do you cover Sutton in Ashfield?
Yes. Sutton in Ashfield (NG17) is within our Nottinghamshire coverage, along with nearby Kirkby in Ashfield, Mansfield and Alfreton.
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.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
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.
