Fire shutters in Lowestoft: the essentials
Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.
Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.
Options we can specify
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Lowestoft?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Lowestoft and the NR32 district, as part of our coverage across Suffolk.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
