What's included
- Scheduling. Service intervals agreed with you, from annual to six-monthly on busy sites.
- Most makes. We service most fire shutter brands, subject to parts availability.
- Remedials. Faults explained on the day and quoted before any chargeable repair.
- Closure test. A full drop test on every visit, with closing speed checked against the manufacturer's range.
- Alarm interface. We coordinate with your fire alarm engineer so the release signal and the shutter are proven together.
Jobs we can carry out
- 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.
- 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 Yeovil?
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.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.
