Shutter servicing & maintenance in Edinburgh: the essentials
A service covers the curtain, guides, barrel, springs, motor, limits, controls, locks and safety devices. Safety edges and photocells are tested so the shutter stops and reverses as it should.
Fire shutters need their own drop testing and servicing, which we cover separately. Small issues like worn bearings or loose fixings are cheaper to fix early than after a breakdown.
Features to choose from
- Cleaning and lubrication of guides and bearings
- Written report after every visit
- Spring tension and balance checks
- Safety edge and photocell testing
- Full mechanical inspection
- Fixing and bracket checks

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.

Before you book in Edinburgh
Do you cover Edinburgh?

Can you service shutters across several sites?
Yes, we can schedule planned maintenance across multiple sites with one report format.

How often should a roller shutter be serviced?
Most shop shutters benefit from a yearly service, and busy commercial or industrial doors usually need two or more visits a year. The manufacturer's instructions and your risk assessment set the frequency.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
