How fire shutters work, and what to ask for

Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation. Counter-height fire shutters protect serving hatches and kitchen pass-throughs.

Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments. A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter.

What's included

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

Rules in Scotland

Fire safety law and fire shutters

In Scotland the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 require the duty holder to keep fire safety measures, including fire shutters, maintained in efficient working order and good repair.

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.

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In Scotland electrical work in buildings must also meet the Scottish building standards, and is carried out and certified by a qualified electrician.

Questions about fire shutters in Renfrewshire & Inverclyde

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.

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.

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.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
