Options for fire shutters in Aberystwyth
- Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.

- Alarm interface. Release linked to the fire alarm and designed to BS 7273-4.
- Tested products. Shutters supplied with the manufacturer's fire test evidence and Declaration of Performance.
- Records. You receive records of the installation, commissioning and first drop test for your files.
What this work can involve
- Installing a motorised fire shutter that also serves as the daily goods door between two warehouse compartments.
- Supplying a fire shutter to a fire engineer's specification on a new-build unit, timed to the main contractor's programme.
- Fitting battery back-up, a beacon and a sounder to a new fire shutter on a service corridor.
Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Aberystwyth?
The responsible person, usually the employer, owner or managing agent, has the duty under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as it applies in Wales. Your fire risk assessment should list each shutter, how it is released and how often it is tested, and Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service may ask how the shutters are maintained.
Planning the work around your site
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Fire shutters in Aberystwyth: your questions
Can a fire shutter in Aberystwyth 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.
Are your fire shutters in Aberystwyth 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.
Who maintains a fire shutter at our Aberystwyth premises?
The person in control of the premises: the responsible person in England and Wales, the dutyholder in Scotland, or in Northern Ireland the person with fire safety duties. Check your lease to see whether landlord or tenant arranges servicing.
