What to know about shutter servicing & maintenance in Fife

Busy commercial and industrial doors usually need servicing more often than a shop shutter used twice a day. Safety edges and photocells are tested so the shutter stops and reverses as it should. Servicing can extend the life of motors and springs by keeping the curtain running freely.

A service covers the curtain, guides, barrel, springs, motor, limits, controls, locks and safety devices. Fire shutters need their own drop testing and servicing, which we cover separately.

What's included

  • Full mechanical inspection
  • Motor, limit and control checks
  • Cleaning and lubrication of guides and bearings
  • Safety edge and photocell testing
  • Multi-shutter and multi-site contracts
  • 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.

Shutter servicing & maintenance: common questions

Is servicing a legal requirement?

In workplaces, the employer or person in control of the premises must keep powered doors maintained in efficient working order and safe for staff and the public. Regular servicing with a record is the practical way to show that.

What is checked on a service?

The curtain, guides, barrel, springs, motor, limits, controls, locks and safety devices, followed by a written report.

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 you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
