Fire safety duties for shutters in Stirling
In Scotland, fire shutters are part of the fire precautions the dutyholder must keep maintained under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006: in efficient working order and in good repair. Testing at suitable intervals and keeping the results is expected good practice and supports your fire risk assessment. Enforcement in Stirling is by the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service.
How the work is organised
For busy sites in Forth Valley the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
