Options that matter on site

Tested products. Every shutter comes with its maker's furnace test or assessment evidence and performance declaration.
Records. Commissioning and drop test records handed over for the fire safety file.
Daily-use models. Where needed, the shutter can be motorised for daily traffic and still close on alarm.
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

Installing a motorised fire shutter that also serves as the daily goods door between two warehouse compartments.
Coordinating commissioning with the fire alarm contractor so the shutter release is proven during the same visit.
Supplying a fire shutter to a fire engineer's specification on a new-build unit, timed to the main contractor's programme.

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

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.

Planning the work around your site

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
