What our engineers check and fix
- Written records. A service report per shutter for your fire safety logbook.
- Most makes. Shutters from most manufacturers serviced, whether or not we installed them.
- Remedials. Faults explained on the day and quoted before any chargeable repair.
- Drive and back-up. Motors, brakes, limit settings and battery units checked for reliable operation.
- Closure test. A full drop test on every visit, with closing speed checked against the manufacturer's range.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing a failed battery back-up unit so a fire shutter closes under control when mains power is lost.
- Testing service-yard fire shutters out of hours so the closure test does not block a busy delivery route.
- Drop-testing compartment fire shutters every six months, coordinated with the fire alarm contractor's scheduled test visit.
Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Wrexham?
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
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
