Choosing counter & hatch shutters for premises in Braintree
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.
Counter shutters can be face-fixed in front of the opening or fitted between the reveals. Schools, hospitals and canteens use counter shutters to close servery areas between meals.
Options we can specify
- Slim laths and compact box
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- Face or reveal fixing
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Keyed-alike locking options

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.

Questions about counter & hatch shutters in Braintree
Do you cover Braintree?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Braintree. We also cover nearby Witham, Chelmsford and Maldon.
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.
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 you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
