What the visit covers in Havant
- Closure test. Each shutter released as the alarm would and its descent timed and checked.
- Remedials. Faults explained on the day and quoted before any chargeable repair.
- Mechanical checks. Guides, laths, bottom rail and smoke seals inspected and cleaned so nothing stops a full closure.
- Most makes. We service most fire shutter brands, subject to parts availability.
- Written records. Clear records of what was tested, the result and any actions, ready for your fire risk assessor.
Typical scopes of work
- Testing service-yard fire shutters out of hours so the closure test does not block a busy delivery route.
- Realigning and clearing fire shutter guides damaged by pallet trucks so nothing prevents a full, square closure.
- Replacing a failed battery back-up unit so a fire shutter closes under control when mains power is lost.
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 Havant, the enforcing authority is the local fire and rescue authority.
