What the visit covers in Stirling
- Mechanical checks. Curtain, barrel, guides, bottom rail and seals inspected for damage and wear.
- 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. We service most fire shutter brands, subject to parts availability.
What this work can involve
- Testing service-yard fire shutters out of hours so the closure test does not block a busy delivery route.
- Freeing and adjusting a seized governor on a servery fire shutter that does not close fully on test.
- Realigning and clearing fire shutter guides damaged by pallet trucks so nothing prevents a full, square closure.
Fire shutter law in Scotland
A fire shutter only does its job if it closes when needed. Under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, the dutyholder must keep fire safety equipment maintained in efficient working order, and keeping test records is the usual way to show it. Shutters must also stay as the manufacturer tested and certified them, so repairs should use the right parts. In Stirling, the enforcing authority is the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service.
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.
