Things to think about
Repair or replace
If the frame is sound, repair is usually best. Heavily corroded or badly bent grilles are often better replaced.
Parts
Some older grilles need parts that are no longer made; equivalents can often be adapted.
Rules that apply in Scotland
Electric roller grilles
Electric grilles need a suitable supply wired to BS 7671, with some work needing a building warrant in Scotland. Powered grilles should have working safety devices and regular maintenance.
Grilles across exits in business premises
In Scotland, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 make the duty holder keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

Yes. As well as Penicuik, we can arrange visits in nearby Dalkeith, Edinburgh and Musselburgh, and elsewhere in Edinburgh and the Lothians.

Usually dirt or debris in the bottom track, worn wheels, or a grille that has dropped out of line. Each is normally fixable on site.
