What to specify
- Certified install. We follow the certified installation details exactly, because the rating depends on them.
- Alarm interface. We agree the cause-and-effect with your alarm contractor and prove the release at commissioning.
- Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.
- Records. You receive records of the installation, commissioning and first drop test for your files.
- Battery back-up. Batteries keep the closing sequence under control even if mains power is lost.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting a 120-minute fire shutter to a conveyor opening between production and storage compartments, released by the fire alarm.
- 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.
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 New Malden, the enforcing authority is the London Fire Commissioner (London Fire Brigade).
Keeping your site running during the work
Most installations in New Malden can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
