Some take our advice on board and others choose not to thinking they will save money and time. Some customers are lucky enough to get 15 to 20 years of trouble free operation on a shop front for example with as few as 2 operations a day, but a lot can change in 15 - 20 years. Such as new safety regulations which require all roller shutters over personnel access points to have safety brakes to avoid downward failure and injury. Although not entirely finalised yet and open to interpretation to a degree, the "European Standards on safety of doors, gates and barriers - BS EN 12453-2017 and BS EN 12604-2017" basically make the owner of a building which has roller shutters, whole responsible for their safety and regular maintenance.
