Fire shutters in Abingdon: the essentials

Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.

Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly. They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat.

Specification options

  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Governed closing speed for safety

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.

Fire shutters: common questions

Do you cover Abingdon?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Abingdon and the OX14 district, as part of our coverage across Oxfordshire.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
