Safety Compliance & Brakes
The Health and Safety at Work Act requires that all electrically operated shutters are maintained in safe working order. We inspect safety brakes (anti-fall devices) and limit switches on every repair visit to ensure compliance.
How To Look After Your Roller Shutter
A little maintenance goes a long way. Here are tips we give our commercial clients:
- 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.
- Have your shutters professionally serviced once a year to test the electrical safety and the mechanical safety brakes.
