In industrial spaces, fire can break out fast. With flammable materials, heavy machinery, and high-voltage equipment everywhere, it is a ticking time bomb without the right protection. That’s where fire-rated shutters come in. At ADV Contractors, we design, supply and install premium fire-rated shutters across the UK. Moreover, they don’t just block fire, but they give you time to evacuate and for firefighters to respond to protect your building and everything inside.
Fire-rated Shutters: Protect Your Industrial Site the Smart Way
A fire can start without any warning. So, what you do next matters. That’s where our fire-rated shutters are designed to automatically activate during an emergency. They help contain flames and smoke, as well as giving people time to evacuate safely and reducing damage to your property.
At ADV Contractors, we install shutters that offer up to 4 hours of fire resistance, meeting BS 476 Part 22 and EN 16034 standards. That’s serious protection, trusted by businesses across London and beyond.
They Act Fast in Emergencies
These shutters don’t wait for someone to hit a switch. At the moment when fire or smoke is detected, they automatically drop. Moreover, some models even work when the power goes out. They connect directly to your fire alarm system or building management system.
They Are Designed for Tough Jobs
Industrial fire-rated shutters are heavy-duty. We made them with galvanized steel, insulated slats, or stainless steel. However, they are built to take a beating and then some. So, whether you are running a warehouse, a factory, or a chemical plant, these shutters can handle it. They fit perfectly across:
- Sectioning off high-risk zones
- Protecting expensive machinery
- Shielding stock and storage areas
- Isolating kitchens, control rooms, and electrical cabinets
How Fire-Rated Shutters Help You Every Day
It’s not just about fire. These shutters do more than one job. When fire isn’t a risk, they work as security shutters. They keep your property safe from theft and unauthorized access. Some models even come with thermal insulation or soundproofing—perfect for noisy machinery zones or temperature-sensitive spaces.
Dual Protection: Fire Safety + Security
ADV Contractors’ fire resistant shutters don’t just defend against fire. They also serve as high-strength security shutters. Moreover, they protect your site after hours. With compact motor systems, custom RAL colors, and optional vision panels, they fit seamlessly into your building without standing out. However, whether it is day or night, fire or theft, your site stays secure all times.
