Options that matter on site
- Alarm interface. We agree the cause-and-effect with your alarm contractor and prove the release at commissioning.
- Records. Commissioning and drop test records handed over for the fire safety file.
- Certified install. Fitted strictly to the manufacturer's specification for fixings, wall type and fire-stopping.
- Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.
- Battery back-up. Back-up units maintain controlled closing during a mains failure.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Coordinating commissioning with the fire alarm contractor so the shutter release is proven during the same visit.
- Fire-stopping the head and jambs of a replacement shutter exactly to the manufacturer's installation details.
- Supplying a fire shutter to a fire engineer's specification on a new-build unit, timed to the main contractor's programme.
Fire shutter law in Scotland
A fire shutter only does its job if it closes when needed. Under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, the dutyholder 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 Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, the enforcing authority is the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service.
Planning the work around your site
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.
