What our engineers check and fix

  • Remedials. If a shutter fails, we explain why and quote the fix before carrying out paid work.
  • Most makes. We service most fire shutter brands, subject to parts availability.
  • Alarm interface. Release signal and fail-safe operation checked, with your alarm contractor where needed.
  • Scheduling. Service intervals agreed with you, from annual to six-monthly on busy sites.
  • Written records. A service report per shutter for your fire safety logbook.

Typical scopes of work

  • Servicing fire shutters on conveyor openings, including checks that the conveyor clears the closing line before the shutter descends.
  • Replacing a failed battery back-up unit so a fire shutter closes under control when mains power is lost.
  • Freeing and adjusting a seized governor on a servery fire shutter that does not close fully on test.

Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Halewood?

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.

Planning the work around your site

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
