Shutter servicing & maintenance in Lerwick: the essentials
A service record helps show insurers and inspectors that the shutter is looked after. 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. Busy commercial and industrial doors usually need servicing more often than a shop shutter used twice a day.
What's included
- Written report after every visit
- Fixing and bracket checks
- Motor, limit and control checks
- Multi-shutter and multi-site contracts
- Cleaning and lubrication of guides and bearings
- Safety edge and photocell testing

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
Do you cover Lerwick?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair shutter servicing & maintenance in Lerwick and the ZE1 district, as part of our coverage across Highlands & Islands.
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.
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.
What is checked on a service?
The curtain, guides, barrel, springs, motor, limits, controls, locks and safety devices, followed by a written report.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
