What our engineers check and fix
- Alarm interface. We coordinate with your fire alarm engineer so the release signal and the shutter are proven together.
- Written records. Clear records of what was tested, the result and any actions, ready for your fire risk assessor.
- Remedials. Faults explained on the day and quoted before any chargeable repair.
- Most makes. Shutters from most manufacturers serviced, whether or not we installed them.
- Mechanical checks. Curtain, barrel, guides, bottom rail and seals inspected for damage and wear.
Jobs we can carry out
- Drop-testing compartment fire shutters every six months, coordinated with the fire alarm contractor's scheduled test visit.
- Servicing fire shutters on conveyor openings, including checks that the conveyor clears the closing line before the shutter descends.
- Testing service-yard fire shutters out of hours so the closure test does not block a busy delivery route.
Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in St Neots?
The responsible person, usually the employer, owner or managing agent, has the duty under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Your fire risk assessment should list each shutter, how it is released and how often it is tested, and the local fire and rescue authority may ask how the shutters are maintained.
Planning the work around your site
Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.
