Choosing roller shutter repairs for premises in Edinburgh & the Lothians
Damaged laths can usually be cut out and replaced individually rather than replacing the whole curtain. We repair most makes and types, from small window shutters to industrial doors. Grinding or squealing usually points to dry or damaged guides, bearings or end plates.
After a repair, powered shutters are checked so the safety devices and limits work correctly. If repair is not economical, we give you a price for a replacement curtain or shutter so you can compare.
Specification options
- Key switch, remote and receiver repairs
- Guide, bearing and end plate repairs
- Motor, limit and control faults
- Curtains refitted into guides
- Safety checks after every repair
- Spring re-tensioning and replacement

Rules in Scotland
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In Scotland electrical work in buildings must also meet the Scottish building standards, and is carried out and certified by a qualified electrician.
