Roller shutter repairs in Falkirk

Repairing your Falkirk 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

A short video of your shutter running, from Falkirk or anywhere in Scotland, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls. If a break-in has damaged a shutter in Falkirk or elsewhere in Scotland, ring our 24/7 emergency line and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 251 miles away, and send fitting teams across Scotland. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. Our Falkirk work takes in FK1, FK2, FK3. Neighbouring Cumbernauld and Stirling are covered too.

What do we fix in Falkirk?

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

What does it cost in Falkirk?

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 shutter at your Falkirk shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. 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

Can you come out to Falkirk for a survey?

Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Falkirk. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.

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 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 Falkirk 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.
