How shutter servicing & maintenance works, and what to ask for
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. Each visit ends with a written report listing what was checked and anything that needs attention.
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.
Options we can specify
- Cleaning and lubrication of guides and bearings
- Spring tension and balance checks
- Multi-shutter and multi-site contracts
- Safety edge and photocell testing
- Motor, limit and control checks
- Full mechanical inspection

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.
