- Mechanical checks. Curtain, barrel, guides, bottom rail and seals inspected for damage and wear.
Typical scopes of work
- Producing a fire shutter schedule and condition report ahead of a fire risk assessment review.
- Drop-testing compartment fire shutters every six months, coordinated with the fire alarm contractor's scheduled test visit.
- 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 Clwyd?
The responsible person, usually the employer, owner or managing agent, has the duty under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as it applies in Wales. Your fire risk assessment should list each shutter, how it is released and how often it is tested, and North Wales Fire and Rescue Service may ask how the shutters are maintained.
How the work is organised
On a first visit we record each door's make, size, control type and condition. That record makes later repairs quicker to price and helps you plan replacements before a door fails.
