Area: West Yorkshire
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Records. Commissioning and drop test records handed over for the fire safety file.
Battery back-up. Back-up units maintain controlled closing during a mains failure.
Tested products. Every shutter comes with its maker's furnace test or assessment evidence and performance declaration.
Daily-use models. Where needed, the shutter can be motorised for daily traffic and still close on alarm.
Fail-safe closing. If the alarm sounds or the power goes, the shutter drops at a governed speed and closes the opening.

Examples of work we can quote for

Installing a motorised fire shutter that also serves as the daily goods door between two warehouse compartments.
Fitting battery back-up, a beacon and a sounder to a new fire shutter on a service corridor.
Coordinating commissioning with the fire alarm contractor so the shutter release is proven during the same visit.

Who must keep fire shutters working at a site in Halifax?

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 local fire and rescue authority may ask how the shutters are maintained.

Keeping your site running during the work

Most installations in Halifax 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.

Fire shutters in Halifax: your questions

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.

Do you service fire shutters across West Yorkshire?

Can you link a fire shutter to our existing alarm in Halifax?

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.
