What to specify
- Daily-use models. Where needed, the shutter can be motorised for daily traffic and still close on alarm.
- Battery back-up. Batteries keep the closing sequence under control even if mains power is lost.
- Fail-safe closing. Controlled descent on alarm or power loss, with governor speed control.
- Warning devices. Audible and visual warnings let people know the shutter is about to close.
- Alarm interface. We agree the cause-and-effect with your alarm contractor and prove the release at commissioning.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing an obsolete kitchen servery fire shutter with a new shutter released by the fire alarm panel.
- Building up a blockwork wall to the tested construction before fitting a new compartment fire shutter.
- Coordinating commissioning with the fire alarm contractor so the shutter release is proven during the same visit.
Fire shutter law in England
A fire shutter only does its job if it closes when needed. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person 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 Truro, the enforcing authority is the local fire and rescue authority.
How the work is organised
Most installations in Truro 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.
