How we look after doors in Kirkintilloch
- Closure test. Each shutter released as the alarm would and its descent timed and checked.
- Remedials. If a shutter fails, we explain why and quote the fix before carrying out paid work.
- Scheduling. Six-monthly or annual visits set to suit your risk assessment.
- Alarm interface. We coordinate with your fire alarm engineer so the release signal and the shutter are proven together.
- Written records. A service report per shutter for your fire safety logbook.
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.
- Testing service-yard fire shutters out of hours so the closure test does not block a busy delivery route.
Fire shutter law in Scotland
A fire shutter only does its job if it closes when needed. Under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, the dutyholder 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 Kirkintilloch, the enforcing authority is the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service.
How the work is organised
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.
