Options that matter on site
- Certified install. Fitted strictly to the manufacturer's specification for fixings, wall type and fire-stopping.
- Warning devices. Audible and visual warnings let people know the shutter is about to close.
- 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.
- Records. You receive records of the installation, commissioning and first drop test for your files.
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.
- Replacing an obsolete kitchen servery fire shutter with a new shutter released by the fire alarm panel.
- Supplying a fire shutter to a fire engineer's specification on a new-build unit, timed to the main contractor's programme.
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 Salford, the enforcing authority is the local fire and rescue authority.
Planning the work around your site
Most installations in Salford 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.

Questions from businesses in Salford
Can you link a fire shutter to our existing alarm in Salford?
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.
How long does fire shutter installation take at a Salford 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.
Are your fire shutters in Salford certified?
The certification belongs to the shutter: we supply products carrying the manufacturer's fire test evidence and Declaration of Performance, and install them to the certified specification so they perform as tested.
