Roller shutter repairs Buckinghamshire

If a shutter at your Buckinghamshire shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Repairing your Buckinghamshire shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK.

What do we fix in Buckinghamshire?

Stuck open or closedWe find out whether the curtain, motor, brake or controls are the cause, then work out how to release it safely.

Manual shutters and springsSpring-balanced shutters hold stored tension, so spring work is left to trained hands rather than attempted by staff.

Controls and remotesKey switches, push buttons, receivers and handsets are tested and replaced, and limits are reset.

How much does it cost in Buckinghamshire?

As a guide, allow £125 to £695 ex VAT for most repairs. A short video of your shutter running, from Buckinghamshire or anywhere in the South East, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls. Your written quote shows travel, access and any out-of-hours work.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Buckinghamshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Buckinghamshire, including Amersham, Aylesbury, Buckingham, Chesham.

Can I open my shutter by hand if the motor fails?

Usually yes, if it has a manual override such as a crank handle or hand chain. Follow the maker's instructions and do not force it. If there is no override or the curtain has jammed, leave it alone, because forcing it can bend laths or drop the curtain.

Do I need planning permission to repair a shutter?

Usually not. A like-for-like repair in England does not normally need planning permission, although fitting a new external shutter often does. Changing the curtain type or the box could count as a change, so check first, as rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

How often should a shop roller shutter be serviced?

Follow the maker's or installer's instructions, because the interval depends on the shutter and how often it runs. Many owners book one planned service a year. Powered shutters at work premises must be kept safe, so a written service record is worth keeping.
