Choosing shutter servicing & maintenance for premises in Northumberland
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. Fire shutters need their own drop testing and servicing, which we cover separately.
Servicing can extend the life of motors and springs by keeping the curtain running freely. Busy commercial and industrial doors usually need servicing more often than a shop shutter used twice a day.
What's included
- Cleaning and lubrication of guides and bearings
- Fixing and bracket checks
- Full mechanical inspection
- Written report after every visit
- Spring tension and balance checks
- Multi-shutter and multi-site contracts

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
What is checked on a service?
The curtain, guides, barrel, springs, motor, limits, controls, locks and safety devices, followed by a written report.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
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.
