Roller Fire Shutters: Protecting Your Commercial Premises in the Event of Fire

We are coming to the end of firework season. With the 5th November actually falling on a Saturday this year, the bulk of the season’s displays were concentrated in the one weekend. Errant sparks from the bonfires of irresponsible pyrophiliacs mean that, for the nation’s Fire Service, it is the busiest weekend of the year. Fire is extremely hazardous and it is a danger all year round. Happily, there are some precautions you can take to limit the damaging effects of fire should one take hold in your building - like installing our roller fire shutters.  

Fire Shutters for Commercial Premises

For commercial premises or public buildings such as schools and hospitals that may have hatches connecting a kitchen and cafeteria or reception desk and waiting area, we recommend the Flameshield 120 Commercial Fire Shutter. This shutter can be rigged to operate automatically on the activation of the fire alarm or when it registers a temperature above 68 degrees celsius. The shutter can be powder coated to any colour you specify to blend in with your decor.

Fire Shutters for Industrial Premises

For industrial premises such as factories and dockyards we recommend the heavier-duty Flameshield 240 Industrial Fire Shutter. This top quality electrically operated shutter that will automatically close upon detection of fire has proven itself a worthy investment. It is one of the most effective products of its kind currently on the market.

The Warrington Fire Research Establishment has tested both these products and found them to be in compliance with the relevant fire safety legislation. 

Further Options

We also supply and install fire curtains and smoke curtains that can significantly reduce the time it takes for a fire to spread through your building. Installing these fire-delaying devices can give the Fire Service time to respond to an emergency callout. They can minimise property damage from fire and smoke. They can save lives.
