How counter & hatch shutters work, and what to ask for
Satin-anodised aluminium is easy to keep clean in kitchens and food areas. Schools, hospitals and canteens use counter shutters to close servery areas between meals.
Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior. Locks can be fitted at the bottom rail or into the counter, and keyed alike with other shutters.
Options we can specify
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Manual or electric operation
- Slim laths and compact box
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls

Rules in England

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
Do you cover Ashton-in-Makerfield?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Ashton-in-Makerfield. We also cover nearby Golborne, Newton-le-Willows and St Helens.
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.
What details help you quote quickly?
