What to specify
- Alarm interface. Release linked to the fire alarm and designed to BS 7273-4.
- Warning devices. Sounders and beacons to warn people before and during descent.
- Tested products. Every shutter comes with its maker's furnace test or assessment evidence and performance declaration.
- Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.
- Records. Commissioning and drop test records handed over for the fire safety file.

Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Fishponds?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
Most installations in Fishponds can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Frequently asked questions
Can you link a fire shutter to our existing alarm in Fishponds?
Usually, yes. We work with your fire alarm contractor to agree the cause-and-effect and the interface, designed to BS 7273-4, and prove the shutter closes on the alarm signal at commissioning.
Are your fire shutters in Fishponds certified?
The certification belongs to the shutter: we supply products carrying the manufacturer's fire test evidence and Declaration of Performance, and install them to the certified specification so they perform as tested.
Do you service fire shutters across Bristol?
Yes. We service and drop-test fire shutters across Bristol, including most makes we did not install, and provide a written report for each shutter. Servicing visits are chargeable at a fixed price per shutter.
