Fire shutters in Braintree have a similar design to standard roller shutters. However, several alterations have been made to the design to ensure that the integrity of the fire shutter is not compromised under fire conditions. In the event of a fire, fire shutters in London are designed to close and contain a fire.

How do fire shutters work?
Standard tubular motor fire shutters in Braintree operateupon receiving a signal from the fire alarm system or a key switch for security.
Conventional inline fire shutters in Braintree can also be utilised for more industrial applications. They can be activated by the alarm system which will drive the motor. A failsafe mechanism such as a fusible link can also trigger the solenoid release mechanism, which would result in a controlled gravitational descent. Fire shutters in Braintree are equipped with a control panel, which can be programmed accordingly to allow options like two-stage closing and any delays required. Depending on the control panel, they can also provide audio and visual warnings. These will notify those in proximity to the fire shutter, which is activated and operating.
