What we fit in Sevenoaks
- Alarm interface. We agree the cause-and-effect with your alarm contractor and prove the release at commissioning.
- Warning devices. Audible and visual warnings let people know the shutter is about to close.
- Certified install. We follow the certified installation details exactly, because the rating depends on them.
- Battery back-up. Back-up units maintain controlled closing during a mains failure.
- Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting battery back-up, a beacon and a sounder to a new fire shutter on a service corridor.
- Fire-stopping the head and jambs of a replacement shutter exactly to the manufacturer's installation details.
- Building up a blockwork wall to the tested construction before fitting a new compartment fire shutter.
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 Sevenoaks, the enforcing authority is the local fire and rescue authority.
How the work is organised
Sites in and around Sevenoaks 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.
