Typical scopes of work
- Drop-testing compartment fire shutters every six months, coordinated with the fire alarm contractor's scheduled test visit.
- Producing a fire shutter schedule and condition report ahead of a fire risk assessment review.
- Servicing fire shutters on conveyor openings, including checks that the conveyor clears the closing line before the shutter descends.
Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Leeds?
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.
Planning the work around your site
On a first visit we record each door's make, size, control type and condition. That record makes later repairs quicker to price and helps you plan replacements before a door fails.
