How fire shutters work, and what to ask for
A fire shutter that sticks or closes too slowly may not protect the opening, which is why drop tests matter. 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. Fire shutters are common in kitchens, serveries, plant rooms, warehouses and openings between compartments.
What's included
- Planned servicing to keep it compliant
- Counter, hatch and large-opening versions
- Fail-safe or gravity closing on power loss
- Fire resistance from 60 to 240 minutes, product dependent
- Governed closing speed for safety
- Manufacturer's test evidence and certification

Rules in England
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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Wakefield?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Wakefield. We also cover nearby Ossett, Dewsbury and Morley.
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 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 you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
