What to know about shutter servicing & maintenance in Formby
A service record helps show insurers and inspectors that the shutter is looked after. Safety edges and photocells are tested so the shutter stops and reverses as it should.
Multi-site and multi-shutter contracts can be scheduled together so every door is covered. Fire shutters need their own drop testing and servicing, which we cover separately.

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 Formby?
Yes. Formby (L37) is within our Merseyside coverage, along with nearby Maghull, Southport and Bootle.
Can you service shutters across several sites?
Yes, we can schedule planned maintenance across multiple sites with one report format.
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.
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.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
