What to know about shutter servicing & maintenance in Scottish Borders
Multi-site and multi-shutter contracts can be scheduled together so every door is covered. 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. Small issues like worn bearings or loose fixings are cheaper to fix early than after a breakdown.
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.
Options we can specify
- Motor, limit and control checks
- Spring tension and balance checks
- Safety edge and photocell testing
- Full mechanical inspection
- Written report after every visit
- Fixing and bracket checks

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.
