Counter & hatch shutters in Barnstaple: the essentials
Reception desks and ticket offices use them to secure the counter when staff are away. Most are manual, lifted and locked by hand, with electric operation available on wider counters.
Schools, hospitals and canteens use counter shutters to close servery areas between meals. Counter shutters use slim laths and a compact box so they fit above a hatch without taking much space.
Specification options
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Slim laths and compact box
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
- Keyed-alike locking options

Your questions answered
Do you cover Barnstaple?
Yes. Barnstaple (EX31) is within our Devon coverage, along with nearby Bideford.
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.
Can counter shutters be keyed alike?
Yes, the locks can be keyed alike so one key opens several shutters.
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.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
