Roller shutter repairs in Manchester: questions
Why has my roller shutter stopped working?
Common causes are a tripped or failed motor, limits that have drifted, laths jumping out of a guide, a broken spring on manual shutters, or a jammed lock. Photos help us diagnose it before we visit.
My shutter came down on its own, is it safe?
Keep people away from it and do not try to lift it by hand; a broken spring or failed brake can make it move unexpectedly. Call us and we will make it safe.
