Fire shutters in Oxford: the essentials
Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.
Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.
What's included
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup

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 Oxford?
Yes. Oxford (OX1) is within our Oxfordshire coverage, along with nearby Abingdon, Didcot and Witney.
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 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.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
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.
