Choosing fire shutters for premises in West Glamorgan

A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter. The rating has to match the fire strategy for the wall the shutter sits in, which is set by the building's fire design. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.

They are usually linked to the fire alarm, and many also have a fusible link that releases the curtain in heat. Fail-safe or gravity-closing designs let the curtain descend even if the power fails during a fire.

What's included

  • Planned servicing to keep it compliant
  • Manufacturer's test evidence and certification
  • Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
  • Alarm-linked closing with fusible link backup
  • Commissioning and drop test on handover
  • Governed closing speed for safety

Rules in Wales

Fire safety law and fire shutters

In Wales the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 also applies. Fire shutters are part of the fire precautions, and the responsible person must keep them maintained in efficient working order, with regular drop testing and records.

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 homes in Wales, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations as applied in Wales, so the work is self-certified by a registered electrician or notified to building control.

Your questions answered

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.

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.

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 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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
