Roller shutter repairs in Kent
A short video of your shutter running, from Kent or anywhere in the South East, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls.

Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Kent premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance. Landlords with shuttered units in Kent and across the South East can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Kent?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Kent, including Ashford, Canterbury, Chatham, Dartford.
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.
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.
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.
