Fire shutter law in Scotland
A fire shutter only does its job if it closes when needed. Under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, the dutyholder 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 Inverness, the enforcing authority is the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service.
Planning the work around your site
Sites in and around Inverness vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Your questions about fire shutters
Can you link a fire shutter to our existing alarm in Inverness?
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.
Can a fire shutter in Inverness be fitted to any wall?
No. It must be fitted to a wall of the type covered by the manufacturer's test evidence, with fire-stopping as detailed. If your wall differs, we explain what building work is needed before the shutter is ordered.
How much does a fire shutter cost in Inverness?
Our guide price for a single fire shutter with control panel and fail-safe closing is £4,495 to £11,995 ex VAT, supplied and fitted. Size, rating and alarm interface set the final figure, which we confirm in writing after a free survey in Inverness.
