Roller shutter repairs in East Kilbride

Repairing your East Kilbride shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK.

Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

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

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 241 miles away, and send fitting teams across Scotland. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. Jobs in G74 are planned alongside Cambuslang and Rutherglen.

What can we sort out in East Kilbride?

Bent or damaged lathsDamaged laths are slid out and replaced where the profile is available, without renewing the whole curtain.
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.
Controls and remotesKey switches, push buttons, receivers and handsets are tested and replaced, and limits are reset.

What does it cost in East Kilbride?

A roller shutter repair costs £125 to £695 ex VAT for most repairs. A few damaged laths or a control fault sit at the lower end, and a new motor towards the top. If a video of the shutter running does not show the cause, we book a charged diagnostic visit, from £125 ex VAT. You are told that figure before we come out.

If a break-in has damaged a shutter in East Kilbride or elsewhere in Scotland, ring our 24/7 emergency line and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call. If you can't close, we phase the work: one bay at a time, with the unit left secure and weathertight every night.

Common questions

Do you cover East Kilbride?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in East Kilbride and across Scotland, including G74. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

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.

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 the same rules apply in Scotland?

Rules differ in Scotland, so we confirm what applies to your premises before work starts.

What do I do if my shop in East Kilbride is broken into?

Call the police first if a crime is in progress, then call our 24/7 line on 0800 088 6341. We will tell you the arrival time when you call, and board up or reglaze so the premises are secure.
