Roller shutter repairs Lancashire

A short video of your shutter running, from Lancashire or anywhere in the North West, 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 Lancashire premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance.

What do we fix in Lancashire?

Motor failureA failed motor is tested and replaced with a unit sized for the curtain and barrel.

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

Curtain out of its guidesImpact and wear can push the curtain out of the guide rails. We refit it and straighten or replace the guides.

How much does it cost in Lancashire?

As a guide, allow £125 to £695 ex VAT for most repairs. Repairing your Lancashire shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Lancashire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Lancashire, including Accrington, Blackburn, Blackpool, Burnley.

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.

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.
