What to know about shutter servicing & maintenance in Boston
Servicing can extend the life of motors and springs by keeping the curtain running freely. Fire shutters need their own drop testing and servicing, which we cover separately.
Busy commercial and industrial doors usually need servicing more often than a shop shutter used twice a day. A service record helps show insurers and inspectors that the shutter is looked after.
What's included
- Spring tension and balance checks
- Written report after every visit
- Full mechanical inspection
- Fixing and bracket checks
- Safety edge and photocell testing
- 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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Boston?
Yes. Boston (PE21) is within our Lincolnshire coverage, along with nearby Spalding, Skegness and Wisbech.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
