Options for fire shutters in Uxbridge
- Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.
- Battery back-up. Back-up units maintain controlled closing during a mains failure.
- Tested products. Shutters supplied with the manufacturer's fire test evidence and Declaration of Performance.
- Warning devices. Audible and visual warnings let people know the shutter is about to close.
- Alarm interface. We agree the cause-and-effect with your alarm contractor and prove the release at commissioning.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Building up a blockwork wall to the tested construction before fitting a new compartment fire shutter.
- 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.
Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Uxbridge?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
