Common Issues &
What We Do About Them
Our engineers are experienced with every type of fault. Whatever the problem with your shutter, call us — we will have seen it before.
Shutter Not Opening or Closing
Motor failure, limit switch faults, or track obstruction preventing normal operation. We diagnose the cause and carry out a lasting repair — not a temporary fix.
Unusual Noises During Operation
Grinding, squealing, or juddering when the shutter runs indicates worn bearings, insufficient lubrication, or misaligned components. Early repair prevents more serious failure.
Motor or Electrical Failure
Electric shutter motors burn out through heavy use or power surges. We carry replacement motors for all major makes and complete most motor replacements in a single visit.
Broken Springs or Cables
Manual shutters rely on springs for counterbalance. A broken spring makes the shutter dangerously heavy or inoperable. Spring repairs must be carried out by a qualified engineer.
Control Panel or Remote Faults
Wall-mounted control panels and remote handsets can fail due to power surges, component wear, or water ingress. We supply and fit replacements for all systems.
Guide Rail and Slat Damage
Impact from vehicles or forced entry attempts can bend guide rails and damage curtain slats, preventing the shutter from running smoothly. We repair or replace damaged sections.
Locking Mechanism Problems
Faulty locks leave your premises vulnerable. We repair and replace ground locks, central locks, and barrel bolts across all commercial shutter types.
Corrosion and Weathering
Essex's coastal climate accelerates corrosion on steel shutters. We treat, repair, and advise on protective coatings to extend shutter life and maintain security.
