What's included
- Most makes. We service most fire shutter brands, subject to parts availability.
- Mechanical checks. Curtain, barrel, guides, bottom rail and seals inspected for damage and wear.
- Remedials. If a shutter fails, we explain why and quote the fix before carrying out paid work.
- Scheduling. Service intervals agreed with you, from annual to six-monthly on busy sites.
- Drive and back-up. Motors, brakes, limit settings and battery units checked for reliable operation.
Jobs we can carry out
- Testing service-yard fire shutters out of hours so the closure test does not block a busy delivery route.
- Drop-testing compartment fire shutters every six months, coordinated with the fire alarm contractor's scheduled test visit.
- Replacing a failed battery back-up unit so a fire shutter closes under control when mains power is lost.
Fire shutter law in England
A fire shutter only does its job if it closes when needed. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person 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 Willenhall, the enforcing authority is the local fire and rescue authority.
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.
