Choosing counter & hatch shutters for premises in County Down

Counter shutters use slim laths and a compact box so they fit above a hatch without taking much space. Most are manual, lifted and locked by hand, with electric operation available on wider counters. Counter shutters can be face-fixed in front of the opening or fitted between the reveals.

Satin-anodised aluminium is easy to keep clean in kitchens and food areas. Locks can be fitted at the bottom rail or into the counter, and keyed alike with other shutters.

Options we can specify

  • Face or reveal fixing
  • Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
  • Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
  • Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
  • Manual or electric operation
  • Slim laths and compact box

Rules in Northern Ireland

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 Northern Ireland the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 require the appropriate person to keep fire precautions, including fire shutters, maintained in efficient working order.

Counter & hatch shutters: common questions

Can a bar shutter look like wood?

Yes. Timber-effect and powder-coated finishes are available so the shutter suits the bar.

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.

Are counter shutters manual?

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

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
