How we look after doors in Greenock
- Most makes. Shutters from most manufacturers serviced, whether or not we installed them.
- Drive and back-up. Motor, brake, limits and any battery back-up tested.
- Alarm interface. We coordinate with your fire alarm engineer so the release signal and the shutter are proven together.
- Scheduling. Service intervals agreed with you, from annual to six-monthly on busy sites.
- Closure test. A full drop test on every visit, with closing speed checked against the manufacturer's range.
Jobs we can carry out
- Realigning and clearing fire shutter guides damaged by pallet trucks so nothing prevents a full, square closure.
- Drop-testing compartment fire shutters every six months, coordinated with the fire alarm contractor's scheduled test visit.
- Producing a fire shutter schedule and condition report ahead of a fire risk assessment review.
Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Greenock?
The dutyholder, usually the employer, owner or managing agent, has the duty under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006. Your fire risk assessment should list each shutter, how it is released and how often it is tested, and the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service may ask how the shutters are maintained.
Access, phasing and timing
Service and repair visits in Greenock are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.

Questions from businesses in Greenock
