How counter & hatch shutters work, and what to ask for
Fire-rated counter shutters need the same regular testing as larger fire shutters. Schools, hospitals and canteens use counter shutters to close servery areas between meals.
Most are manual, lifted and locked by hand, with electric operation available on wider counters. Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior.
Features to choose from
- Face or reveal fixing
- Slim laths and compact box
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- 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.

Counter & hatch shutters: common questions
Do you cover Eltham?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Eltham. We also cover nearby Blackheath, Welling and Catford.
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.
Can counter shutters be keyed alike?
Yes, the locks can be keyed alike so one key opens several shutters.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
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.
