Options that matter on site

Warning devices. Sounders and beacons to warn people before and during descent.
Alarm interface. We agree the cause-and-effect with your alarm contractor and prove the release at commissioning.
Records. You receive records of the installation, commissioning and first drop test for your files.
Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.
Battery back-up. Batteries keep the closing sequence under control even if mains power is lost.

Examples of work we can quote for

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 Hull?

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.

How the work is organised

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
