Our fire-rated roller shutters service in Stirling
Where a fire shutter is part of new building work in Stirling, the approval route and the product evidence are confirmed before anything is ordered.

We survey and install across Stirling & Falkirk, and Stirling is one of the cities covered. We also cover Alloa, Falkirk and Grangemouth, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.

Rules that apply in Stirling
As a Scottish city, Stirling follows the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 and the Scottish permitted development rules.
- 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.
- 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 Scotland, the duty holder under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 must keep fire safety measures maintained.
- Approvals: Where a fire shutter forms part of building work, such as a new or altered opening in a compartment wall, a building warrant from the council's building standards service is normally needed before work starts.

Frequently asked 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.
How much do fire-rated roller shutters cost in Stirling?
Typical prices are shown above. A survey at your property in Stirling confirms the specification and fixes the price.
Do I need permission for fire-rated roller shutters in Stirling?
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 council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
