Options for fire shutters in Angus and Dundee
- 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.
- Certified install. Fitted strictly to the manufacturer's specification for fixings, wall type and fire-stopping.
- Records. Commissioning and drop test records handed over for the fire safety file.
- Daily-use models. Motorised fire shutters that also work as everyday doors.
Typical scopes of work
- Supplying a fire shutter to a fire engineer's specification on a new-build unit, timed to the main contractor's programme.
- Fitting a 120-minute fire shutter to a conveyor opening between production and storage compartments, released by the fire alarm.
- Coordinating commissioning with the fire alarm contractor so the shutter release is proven during the same visit.
Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Angus and Dundee?
The dutyholder, usually the employer, owner or managing agent, has the duty under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006. Your fire risk assessment should list each shutter, how it is released and how often it is tested, and the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service may ask how the shutters are maintained.
How the work is organised
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
