What to specify

Certified install. Fitted strictly to the manufacturer's specification for fixings, wall type and fire-stopping.
Battery back-up. Batteries keep the closing sequence under control even if mains power is lost.
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.
Warning devices. Sounders and beacons to warn people before and during descent.

What this work can involve

Fitting a 120-minute fire shutter to a conveyor opening between production and storage compartments, released by the fire alarm.
Fitting battery back-up, a beacon and a sounder to a new fire shutter on a service corridor.
Building up a blockwork wall to the tested construction before fitting a new compartment fire shutter.

Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Bexley?

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 London Fire Commissioner (London Fire Brigade) may ask how the shutters are maintained.

Planning the work around your site

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.
