Rules that apply in Greater London

Across Greater London, planning follows the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the permitted development rules in England.

  • Certification: We supply the manufacturer's test or certification evidence for the product we quote. We do not claim a rating on our own behalf.
  • Your duties: In England and Wales, the responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire safety equipment, including fire shutters, maintained in good working order.
  • Approvals: Where a fire shutter forms part of building work, such as a new or altered opening in a compartment wall, building control approval is needed, from the council or a registered building control approver.
  • Alarm link: Linking a shutter to the fire alarm is coordinated with your alarm contractor so the shutter closes on the right signal; shutters across escape routes are normally released by local heat detection.

Fire-rated roller shutters in Greater London: questions

How often should a fire shutter be tested?

Manufacturers and guidance such as BS 9999 recommend servicing at least once a year, including a drop test. Busy sites or insurers may ask for more often.

Will a fire shutter close in a power cut?

Fire shutters are designed to fail safe, closing under gravity at a controlled speed when the release is triggered or power is lost, depending on the system.

Do I need permission for fire-rated roller shutters in Greater London?

It depends on the property. A fire shutter must suit the building's fire strategy, and fire shutters forming part of building work need building control approval (a building warrant in Scotland). Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
