How counter & hatch shutters work, and what to ask for
Counter shutters use slim laths and a compact box so they fit above a hatch without taking much space. 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 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.
What's included
- Manual or electric operation
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes

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.

Counter & hatch shutters: common questions
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 a bar shutter look like wood?
Yes. Timber-effect and powder-coated finishes are available so the shutter suits the bar.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
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.
