What to specify

Alarm interface. Release linked to the fire alarm and designed to BS 7273-4.
Warning devices. Audible and visual warnings let people know the shutter is about to close.
Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.
Certified install. We follow the certified installation details exactly, because the rating depends on them.
Tested products. Shutters supplied with the manufacturer's fire test evidence and Declaration of Performance.

Typical scopes of work

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.
Fitting battery back-up, a beacon and a sounder to a new fire shutter on a service corridor.

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 Leytonstone, the enforcing authority is the London Fire Commissioner (London Fire Brigade).

Keeping your site running during the work

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
