What our engineers check and fix
- Written records. A service report per shutter for your fire safety logbook.
- Remedials. If a shutter fails, we explain why and quote the fix before carrying out paid work.
- Closure test. A full drop test on every visit, with closing speed checked against the manufacturer's range.
- Scheduling. Six-monthly or annual visits set to suit your risk assessment.
- Drive and back-up. Motor, brake, limits and any battery back-up tested.
What this work can involve
- Realigning and clearing fire shutter guides damaged by pallet trucks so nothing prevents a full, square closure.
- Testing service-yard fire shutters out of hours so the closure test does not block a busy delivery route.
- Replacing a failed battery back-up unit so a fire shutter closes under control when mains power is lost.
