Fire Curtains – Essential Servicing
Your Building, Your Fire Curtains
As the building owner or occupier, it’s your responsibility to ensure that people are safe when they’re inside your premises. A large part of any potential risk to both persons and property is down to fires. UK businesses lose millions of pounds every year due to damage caused by fires. You could be leaving people at risk of harm if you neglect to take the necessary fire precautions and could also be violating fire regulations and negating your building’s insurance cover.
There are several options to consider when planning your fire safety systems. Fire curtains are one of the most effective. They reduce damage to buildings by limiting the fire’s ability to spread and by slowing it down. Even more importantly, fire curtains save lives and help to minimise the devastating injuries that people can suffer due to burns, heat or smoke inhalation.
Having the right fire curtains installed in your premises is crucial. But, it’s also vital that your fire curtains are serviced by a competent professional at least every 12 months and maintained to keep them in perfect condition. Regular servicing ensures the curtains’ integrity and maintains proper functioning so you can enjoy peace of mind that your premises are protected.
Fire Curtain Maintenance and Servicing Solutions
Ultimate Fire & Smoke Curtains Ltd provides fully inclusive annual servicing packages. During the site visit, your skilled engineer will ensure your fire curtains are operating as they are supposed to do. They will carry out vital checks and procedures, including:
- Battery replacement
- Resetting the system
- Re-levelling – over time the weight of the fabric can cause stretching and repositioning of the curtain may be needed
- Complete checking of all fixings and wirings
Once the checks have been completed to the highest standards, the engineer will then supply a compliance and service certificate to cover the curtain for the next 12 month period.
When we install your fire curtains, we’ll agree on a maintenance programme that includes backup systems and full support. Every installation is different, so we’ll suggest the best way to approach your system’s servicing in order to maintain optimal operational integrity.
We can also provide maintenance and servicing for fire curtains purchased from other suppliers by arrangement.
