Options that matter on site
- Certified install. Fitted strictly to the manufacturer's specification for fixings, wall type and fire-stopping.
- Fail-safe closing. Controlled descent on alarm or power loss, with governor speed control.
- 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.
- Tested products. Every shutter comes with its maker's furnace test or assessment evidence and performance declaration.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Installing a motorised fire shutter that also serves as the daily goods door between two warehouse compartments.
- Replacing an obsolete kitchen servery fire shutter with a new shutter released by the fire alarm panel.
- Coordinating commissioning with the fire alarm contractor so the shutter release is proven during the same visit.
Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Easterhouse?
The dutyholder, usually the employer, owner or managing agent, has the duty under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006. Your fire risk assessment should list each shutter, how it is released and how often it is tested, and the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service may ask how the shutters are maintained.
Access, phasing and timing
Sites in and around Easterhouse vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Fire shutters in Easterhouse: your questions
How long does fire shutter installation take at an Easterhouse site?
A single shutter is typically fitted in one to two days, with commissioning and alarm testing on top. Lead times for fire-rated products are confirmed with the quote, and work is planned around your operations.
Can a fire shutter in Easterhouse 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.
Can you link a fire shutter to our existing alarm in Easterhouse?
Usually, yes. We work with your fire alarm contractor to agree the cause-and-effect and the interface, designed to BS 7273-4, and prove the shutter closes on the alarm signal at commissioning.
