Roller shutter repairs Greater London

If a shutter at your Greater London shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Greater London premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance.

What do we fix in Greater London?

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.

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

How much does it cost in Greater London?

Budget £125 to £695 ex VAT for most repairs. Landlords with shuttered units in Greater London and across London can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams. Your written quote shows travel, access and any out-of-hours work.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Greater London?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Greater London, including Acton, Barking, Brixton, Bromley.

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.

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.

A vehicle hit my shutter. Can it be repaired?

Often yes. Damaged laths can be replaced, but a bent barrel or distorted guides may need new parts or a new shutter. We can provide photos and an itemised invoice for an insurer, although the outcome of any claim is for them to decide.
