How we look after doors in Cheshunt
- Mechanical checks. Curtain, barrel, guides, bottom rail and seals inspected for damage and wear.

Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Cheshunt?
The responsible person, usually the employer, owner or managing agent, has the duty under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Your fire risk assessment should list each shutter, how it is released and how often it is tested, and the local fire and rescue authority may ask how the shutters are maintained.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.
