Options that matter on site

Battery back-up. Back-up units maintain controlled closing during a mains failure.
Certified install. We follow the certified installation details exactly, because the rating depends on them.
Daily-use models. Motorised fire shutters that also work as everyday doors.
Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.
Tested products. Every shutter comes with its maker's furnace test or assessment evidence and performance declaration.

Typical scopes of work

Fitting a 120-minute fire shutter to a conveyor opening between production and storage compartments, released by the fire alarm.
Fire-stopping the head and jambs of a replacement shutter exactly to the manufacturer's installation details.
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 Larne?

Under the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010, the person with fire safety duties (often called the appropriate person), normally the employer or person in control of the premises, must make sure fire shutters are maintained. Your fire risk assessment should identify each one, how it is released and how often it is tested.

Planning the work around your site

Sites in and around Larne vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
