Planning and safety in Cleethorpes
Cleethorpes is in England, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

Fire-rated roller shutters in Cleethorpes: questions
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.
Who is responsible for maintaining fire shutters?
The person responsible for fire safety in the building: the responsible person in England and Wales, the duty holder in Scotland or the appropriate person in Northern Ireland.
Do I need permission for fire-rated roller shutters in Cleethorpes?
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). If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
