Fire shutters in Birmingham: the essentials

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

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.

Options we can specify

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

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

    Send the postcode, a rough size and a photo if you have one, using the form or a call.

  2. Free survey

  3. Written fixed price

    You get a written quote with the product, finish, controls and price before anything is ordered.

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

Before you book in Birmingham

Do you cover Birmingham?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair fire shutters in Birmingham and the B1 district, as part of our coverage across West Midlands.

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.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
