Counter & hatch shutters in Argyll & Bute: the essentials

Counter shutters can be face-fixed in front of the opening or fitted between the reveals. Fire-rated counter shutters need the same regular testing as larger fire shutters. Satin-anodised aluminium is easy to keep clean in kitchens and food areas.

Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior. Locks can be fitted at the bottom rail or into the counter, and keyed alike with other shutters.

Options we can specify

  • Manual or electric operation
  • Face or reveal fixing
  • Bottom-rail or counter locks
  • Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
  • Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
  • Easy-clean finishes for kitchens

Rules in Scotland

Safety of powered shutters

Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Fire safety law and fire shutters

In Scotland the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 require the duty holder to keep fire safety measures, including fire shutters, maintained in efficient working order and good repair.

Your questions answered

Are counter shutters manual?

Most are manual and spring balanced. Wider counters can be motorised.

Does my kitchen hatch need a fire-rated shutter?

If the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, the opening must not weaken it, so a fire-rated counter shutter is usually needed. Your fire risk assessment or fire strategy will say.

Can counter shutters be keyed alike?

Yes, the locks can be keyed alike so one key opens several shutters.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
