Common roller shutter problems we fix
- Door stuck or jammed: curtain off its guides, bent slats or a seized drum
- Heavy or hard to lift: tired or broken tension springs that need re-tensioning or replacing
- Door won't stay up or drops: spring or brake faults, which are a safety risk
- Damaged curtain: dented or torn slats from vehicles, forklifts or break-in attempts
- Motor not working: blown capacitors, limit switch issues, remote or control faults
- Worn or broken locks: replacement of end locks, bottom locks and padlock brackets
- Noisy operation: worn bearings, dry guides and misalignment
Our repair process
We start by making the door safe and securing your premises. Then we diagnose the fault, explain what's wrong in plain language and give you a price before we do the work. Most repairs are completed on the first visit because our vehicles carry common springs, slats, locks and motor parts.
Emergency repairs after break-ins or accidents
If a door has been forced, hit by a vehicle or is stuck open, you can't leave your stock or home exposed. Call us on (083) 666-9995 and we will prioritise getting your premises secure, either with a full repair or a temporary fix until replacement parts are ready.
Repair or replace?
We'll always tell you honestly whether a repair makes sense. If an old door keeps breaking down, a replacement curtain or a complete new door can work out cheaper over time. We give you both options so you can decide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you repair any brand of roller shutter?
Yes. We repair most makes and models of roller shutter doors, roller garage doors and shutter motors.
Can damaged slats be replaced without replacing the whole door?
Often, yes. Individual damaged slats can be cut out and replaced. If damage is widespread, a new curtain may be more cost-effective.
Do you do emergency call-outs?
Yes. Call (083) 666-9995 and we'll arrange a call-out as quickly as possible to secure your property.
Is it safe to fix roller shutter springs myself?
No. Shutter springs are under high tension and can cause serious injury. Spring work should always be done by a trained technician.
