What our engineers check and fix

  • Remedials. If a shutter fails, we explain why and quote the fix before carrying out paid work.
  • Mechanical checks. Curtain, barrel, guides, bottom rail and seals inspected for damage and wear.
  • 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.
  • Written records. Clear records of what was tested, the result and any actions, ready for your fire risk assessor.

What this work can involve

  • Replacing a failed battery back-up unit so a fire shutter closes under control when mains power is lost.
  • Producing a fire shutter schedule and condition report ahead of a fire risk assessment review.
  • 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 Cwmbran?

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 South Wales Fire and Rescue Service may ask how the shutters are maintained.

Access, phasing and timing

Service and repair visits in Cwmbran are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.
