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

If a shutter at your Hinckley shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Repairing your Hinckley shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK.
At roughly 22 miles from Great Barr, Hinckley is close to home for us. Survey visits are straightforward to arrange. Postcodes we work in around here include LE9, LE10, and we also cover Nuneaton, Bedworth and Atherstone nearby.

Common questions
Do you cover Hinckley?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Hinckley and across Leicestershire, including LE9, LE10. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.
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.
Can you board up a shop in Hinckley out of hours?
Yes. The emergency line is open 24/7 for break-ins and smashed glass in Hinckley. We will tell you the arrival time when you call.
