Options that matter on site

Battery back-up. Batteries keep the closing sequence under control even if mains power is lost.
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.
Records. You receive records of the installation, commissioning and first drop test for your files.
Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.

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.
Building up a blockwork wall to the tested construction before fitting a new compartment fire shutter.
Replacing an obsolete kitchen servery fire shutter with a new shutter released by the fire alarm panel.

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 Doncaster, the enforcing authority is the local fire and rescue authority.

How the work is organised

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
