Fire Shutters help many Colne businesses to ensure that they protect their goods, buildings and employees from the threat of fire by offering potentially significant delays to the spread of the fire. If you are a Colne business owner and take security and safety of your business premises and staff seriously, you may be surprised to know that every year many Colne businesses are forced to close as insurance companies refuse to meet claims because building regulations and Loss Prevention Council requirements have not been met. Fire Shutters from Westwood Security are the perfect to ensure compliance.
There are three primary methods of automatic operation. A fusible link involves the use of solder as connection in the circuit: heat radiated from a nearby fire causes the solder to melt and this activates the door.
A fire relay means that the Fire Shutter or Fire Door is connected to the fire alarm system. When the alarm is sounded, the Fire Shutter activates. Finally, a delayed Audio/Visual Warning used in connection with the Fire Shutters is connected to the alarm system, and operates usually with a time delay very similarly to a fire relay. During this delay an additional alarm is sounded, warning those in close proximity to the door that is about to close, thereby allowing them to exit an affected area.
Building regulations in the Colne area require that openings in fire resisting walls or partitions must have a door with an equivalent fire rating to that of the wall or partition.
