Fire shutters in Newmarket: the essentials

Escape routes and the effect of the shutter closing are checked against the fire strategy before ordering. Because they are part of the building's fire precautions, they must be maintained and tested regularly.

Fire shutters are tested as complete assemblies, and their fire resistance is quoted in minutes for integrity and, where needed, insulation. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design.

What's included

  • Governed closing speed for safety
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant

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.

Fire shutters: common questions

Do you cover Newmarket?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Newmarket. We also cover nearby Haverhill, Ely and Cambridge.

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 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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
