Options that matter on site
- Daily-use models. Where needed, the shutter can be motorised for daily traffic and still close on alarm.
- Tested products. Every shutter comes with its maker's furnace test or assessment evidence and performance declaration.
- Certified install. We follow the certified installation details exactly, because the rating depends on them.
- Alarm interface. We agree the cause-and-effect with your alarm contractor and prove the release at commissioning.
- Battery back-up. Batteries keep the closing sequence under control even if mains power is lost.
Jobs we can carry out
- 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.
- Installing a motorised fire shutter that also serves as the daily goods door between two warehouse compartments.
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 the East Riding of Yorkshire, the enforcing authority is the local fire and rescue authority.
Keeping your site running during the work
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.
