What our engineers check and fix
- Alarm interface. Release signal and fail-safe operation checked, with your alarm contractor where needed.
- Written records. Clear records of what was tested, the result and any actions, ready for your fire risk assessor.
- Mechanical checks. Guides, laths, bottom rail and smoke seals inspected and cleaned so nothing stops a full closure.
- Most makes. Shutters from most manufacturers serviced, whether or not we installed them.
- Drive and back-up. Motors, brakes, limit settings and battery units checked for reliable operation.
Typical scopes of work
- Servicing fire shutters on conveyor openings, including checks that the conveyor clears the closing line before the shutter descends.
- 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.
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 Hanworth, the enforcing authority is the London Fire Commissioner (London Fire Brigade).
Access, phasing and timing
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.
