How To Look After Your Roller Shutter
Simple habits that extend the life of your shutter motor and curtain:
- Keep the shutter guide rails completely clear of debris, dirt, and stones to prevent the curtain from jamming.
- 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.

Most commercial insurance policies require documented maintenance of security shutters. We provide full compliance reports and can arrange annual contract visits to inspect motors and safety brakes.
