Typical scopes of work
- Producing a fire shutter schedule and condition report ahead of a fire risk assessment review.

- Carrying out a first service on fire shutters in a newly occupied unit, recording each shutter's make, label and condition.
Fire shutter law in Wales
A fire shutter only does its job if it closes when needed. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as it applies in Wales, 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 Maesteg, the enforcing authority is South Wales Fire and Rescue Service.
How the work is organised
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.
