Fire safety is not just optional; it is necessary, especially in high fire-risk zones. A small spark can turn into a disaster if your building is not protected. That’s where a fire-rated shutter steps in. It doesn’t just close off an area, but it stops spreading fire and smoke.
Moreover, it gives people time to escape and protect their property from damage. At Shutter Repair Service, we design and manufacture fire-rated shutters that meet the strictest UK standards, delivering peace of mind. However, let’s walk through the real-world specs that make our shutters the smart choice for businesses across the UK.
Fire-Rated Shutter London: Built to Last, rated to protect
At Shutter Repair Service, our fire-rated shutters follow the latest British and European standards. They meet BS EN 16034:2014—the benchmark that makes sure that shutters can prevent the spread of fire and smoke for set durations. Moreover, we offer E60 (60 minutes), E120 (120 minutes), and E240 (240 minutes) resistance levels.
Our every fire-rated shutter in London is CE-marked in line with BS EN 13241-1:2003. However, it confirms its quality, safety, and legal compliance. This mark isn’t just paperwork—it’s your proof that the product meets modern standards.
Strong Materials, Smart Fire-Rated Shutter Design
We use steel and aluminium components that resist heat, stand firm under pressure, and last many cycles without fail. Moving further, materials include galvanised steel guides, steel laths, solid bottom rails, and protective coil casings—all working together to contain fire and stay secure.
Furthermore, our design draws on the principles seen in top industrial shutter lines like Fireroll E120, where each piece, from 76 mm interlocked laths to fire-sealed endplates, is built to perform.
Automatic activation you can trust
We fit every fire-rated shutter with a reliable system that responds precisely when needed:
- Fusible links melt at a critical temperature (typically around 67–74°C), triggering the shutter to close automatically.
- Solenoid releases tie into your fire alarm or detection systems, speeding up response when smoke or heat is detected.
- In the event of a power cut, our shutters mimic gravity-fail systems—they close safely on their own.
- And if that fails, a manual override (“pull-cord to close,” “chain to open”) keeps everything under control.
Fire-Rated Shutter: Tailored for your building and routine
Fire safety is rarely one-size-fits-all. Therefore, we tailor your every fire-rated shutter in London:
- We size them to match your openings exactly, e.g. up to 7 m height and width, as seen in best-in-class offerings.
- Choose single or three-phase motors, compact tube motors for discreet fits, or bulkier geared drives, whatever suits your setting best.
- Want control over your style and surroundings? You can pick your RAL powder coat finish, or stick with classic galvanised steel.
- Add in extras like battery backups, audio-visual warnings, or delayed closure to fit your fire strategy.
Reliable from Day One—and Every Day After
Fire regulation in the UK isn’t just about the fire-rated shutter installation; it is about keeping performance consistent:
- Since the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires regular checks, we schedule six-monthly maintenance to keep your shutters in perfect working order.
- Moreover, our every visit includes inspection, functional testing, and minor servicing that keep your business fire-safe and compliant.
However, if something’s off, we will fix it fast, including out-of-hours response where needed.
