Choosing shutter servicing & maintenance for premises in Dorset
Busy commercial and industrial doors usually need servicing more often than a shop shutter used twice a day. A service covers the curtain, guides, barrel, springs, motor, limits, controls, locks and safety devices. Each visit ends with a written report listing what was checked and anything that needs attention.
Workplace regulations require the employer or person in control of the premises to keep doors and gates, including powered shutters, maintained in efficient working order. Multi-site and multi-shutter contracts can be scheduled together so every door is covered.
Specification options
- Written report after every visit
- Spring tension and balance checks
- Safety edge and photocell testing
- Full mechanical inspection
- Motor, limit and control checks
- Fixing and bracket checks

Rules in England
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.
