Shutter Maintenance Tips
A little maintenance goes a long way. Here are tips we give our commercial clients:
- Test your emergency manual override once a month to ensure it works in the event of a power cut.
- Listen to your motor. If it starts making grinding or straining noises, call an engineer before it burns out completely.
- Do not grease the inside of the guide rails with thick grease — it attracts dirt. Use a light silicone spray if necessary.
Local Shutter Repair Patterns in Barnet
Our engineers work regularly around RAF Museum Hendon and Brent Cross Shopping Centre and along High Street Barnet, Hendon Way, and Station Road, where retail shops, offices, and residential properties rely on secure, operational shutters. Because we visit these areas daily, we know the specific roller shutter systems in use and the faults most likely to occur — from burnt-out motors on heavy shopfronts to jammed curtains on warehouse bays.

A warehouse in Barnet had an industrial roller door that wouldn't lift. Another company told them they needed a full new door. We tested the electrics, identified a burnt-out tubular motor, replaced the motor unit from our van stock, and saved them thousands of pounds.
