What to know about counter & hatch shutters in Cambridgeshire
Satin-anodised aluminium is easy to keep clean in kitchens and food areas. Where the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a fire-rated counter shutter keeps the wall's protection. Locks can be fitted at the bottom rail or into the counter, and keyed alike with other shutters.
Counter shutters use slim laths and a compact box so they fit above a hatch without taking much space. Reception desks and ticket offices use them to secure the counter when staff are away.
Options we can specify
- Manual or electric operation
- Slim laths and compact box
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens

Rules in England
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 England fire shutters form part of a building's fire precautions under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The responsible person must keep them maintained in efficient working order and good repair, which in practice means regular drop testing with written records.

Your questions answered
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 a bar shutter look like wood?
Yes. Timber-effect and powder-coated finishes are available so the shutter suits the bar.
Are counter shutters manual?
Most are manual and spring balanced. Wider counters can be motorised.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
What details help you quote quickly?
