Shutter servicing & maintenance in Watford: the essentials
Safety edges and photocells are tested so the shutter stops and reverses as it should. 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.
Fire shutters need their own drop testing and servicing, which we cover separately. A service covers the curtain, guides, barrel, springs, motor, limits, controls, locks and safety devices.
Options we can specify
- Full mechanical inspection
- Multi-shutter and multi-site contracts
- Motor, limit and control checks
- Safety edge and photocell testing
- Fixing and bracket checks
- Cleaning and lubrication of guides and bearings

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.

How often should a roller shutter be serviced?
