Fire shutters in Jarrow: 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.
They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat. Product certification and test evidence come from the manufacturer, and we provide the documentation with the shutter.
Specification options
- Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Governed closing speed for safety

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.

Questions about fire shutters in Jarrow
Do you cover Jarrow?
Yes. Jarrow (NE32) is within our Tyne and Wear coverage, along with nearby Hebburn, Wallsend and South Shields.
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.
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.
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 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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
