Choosing shutter servicing & maintenance for premises in Hitchin
A service covers the curtain, guides, barrel, springs, motor, limits, controls, locks and safety devices. Busy commercial and industrial doors usually need servicing more often than a shop shutter used twice a day.
Each visit ends with a written report listing what was checked and anything that needs attention. Safety edges and photocells are tested so the shutter stops and reverses as it should.
Options we can specify
- Multi-shutter and multi-site contracts
- Cleaning and lubrication of guides and bearings
- Motor, limit and control checks
- Full mechanical inspection
- Safety edge and photocell testing
- Written report after every visit

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.
