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 Redditch, the enforcing authority is the local fire and rescue authority.
How the work is organised
Service and repair visits in Redditch are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.

Your questions about fire shutter servicing and drop tests
How often should fire shutters in Redditch be tested?
Follow the manufacturer and your fire risk assessment. A full service with closure test at least annually is common practice, with six-monthly visits on busy sites or shutters used daily.
Can you service fire shutters at our Redditch site that we didn't buy from you?
Yes. We service most makes across Worcestershire. On the first visit we record each shutter's details and condition so future services and any repairs are straightforward.
Do you test shutters in Redditch outside working hours?
Yes. Out-of-hours visits are available because testing closes the opening. We agree the timing and confirm any out-of-hours price in the quote.
