Choosing counter & hatch shutters for premises in Manchester
Counter shutters can be face-fixed in front of the opening or fitted between the reveals. Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior.
Schools, hospitals and canteens use counter shutters to close servery areas between meals. Where the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a fire-rated counter shutter keeps the wall's protection.
Options we can specify
- Slim laths and compact box
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Manual or electric operation
- Face or reveal fixing

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.

Yes, the locks can be keyed alike so one key opens several shutters.

Yes. Timber-effect and powder-coated finishes are available so the shutter suits the bar.
Are counter shutters manual?
