What the visit covers in Colne
- Most makes. Shutters from most manufacturers serviced, whether or not we installed them.
- Written records. A service report per shutter for your fire safety logbook.
- Closure test. A full drop test on every visit, with closing speed checked against the manufacturer's range.
- Alarm interface. Release signal and fail-safe operation checked, with your alarm contractor where needed.
- Mechanical checks. Guides, laths, bottom rail and smoke seals inspected and cleaned so nothing stops a full closure.
Jobs we can carry out
- Testing service-yard fire shutters out of hours so the closure test does not block a busy delivery route.
- Drop-testing compartment fire shutters every six months, coordinated with the fire alarm contractor's scheduled test visit.
- Realigning and clearing fire shutter guides damaged by pallet trucks so nothing prevents a full, square closure.
Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Colne?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.
