What we fit in Connah's Quay
- 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.
- Alarm interface. We agree the cause-and-effect with your alarm contractor and prove the release at commissioning.
- Warning devices. Sounders and beacons to warn people before and during descent.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting battery back-up, a beacon and a sounder to a new fire shutter on a service corridor.
- 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.

Frequently asked questions
Are your fire shutters in Connah's Quay 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.
Can a fire shutter in Connah's Quay be fitted to any wall?
No. It must be fitted to a wall of the type covered by the manufacturer's test evidence, with fire-stopping as detailed. If your wall differs, we explain what building work is needed before the shutter is ordered.
Can you link a fire shutter to our existing alarm in Connah's Quay?
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.
