How we look after doors in Omagh
- Mechanical checks. Guides, laths, bottom rail and smoke seals inspected and cleaned so nothing stops a full closure.
- Drive and back-up. Motor, brake, limits and any battery back-up tested.
- Most makes. We service most fire shutter brands, subject to parts availability.
- Alarm interface. Release signal and fail-safe operation checked, with your alarm contractor where needed.
- Closure test. Each shutter released as the alarm would and its descent timed and checked.
What this work can involve
- Servicing fire shutters on conveyor openings, including checks that the conveyor clears the closing line before the shutter descends.
- Freeing and adjusting a seized governor on a servery fire shutter that does not close fully on test.
- Replacing a failed battery back-up unit so a fire shutter closes under control when mains power is lost.
Fire safety duties for shutters in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland the person with fire safety duties (often called the appropriate person) has the duty under the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 to keep fire safety measures, including fire shutters, maintained and in efficient working order. Keeping test records is expected good practice. Enforcement in Omagh is by the Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service.
Keeping your site running during the work
