How we look after doors in Radcliffe
- Alarm interface. We coordinate with your fire alarm engineer so the release signal and the shutter are proven together.
- Most makes. We service most fire shutter brands, subject to parts availability.
- Scheduling. Six-monthly or annual visits set to suit your risk assessment.
- Closure test. A full drop test on every visit, with closing speed checked against the manufacturer's range.
- Written records. Clear records of what was tested, the result and any actions, ready for your fire risk assessor.
What this work can involve
- Producing a fire shutter schedule and condition report ahead of a fire risk assessment review.
- Freeing and adjusting a seized governor on a servery fire shutter that does not close fully on test.
- Testing service-yard fire shutters out of hours so the closure test does not block a busy delivery route.
