Counter & hatch shutters in Southampton: the essentials
Where the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a fire-rated counter shutter keeps the wall's protection. 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. Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior.
Specification options
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
- Manual or electric operation
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Face or reveal fixing
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls

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 Southampton
Do you cover Southampton?
Yes. Southampton (SO15) is within our Hampshire coverage, along with nearby Hythe, Totton and Eastleigh.
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.
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.
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.
