How we look after doors in Cricklewood
- Mechanical checks. Curtain, barrel, guides, bottom rail and seals inspected for damage and wear.
- Remedials. If a shutter fails, we explain why and quote the fix before carrying out paid work.
- Scheduling. Six-monthly or annual visits set to suit your risk assessment.
- Alarm interface. Release signal and fail-safe operation checked, with your alarm contractor where needed.
- Most makes. We service most fire shutter brands, subject to parts availability.
Jobs we can carry out
- Realigning and clearing fire shutter guides damaged by pallet trucks so nothing prevents a full, square closure.
- 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.
Fire shutter law in England
A fire shutter only does its job if it closes when needed. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person 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 Cricklewood, the enforcing authority is the London Fire Commissioner (London Fire Brigade).
How the work is organised
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.
