Counter & hatch shutters in Highlands & Islands: the essentials

Counter shutters can be face-fixed in front of the opening or fitted between the reveals. Most are manual, lifted and locked by hand, with electric operation available on wider counters. Satin-anodised aluminium is easy to keep clean in kitchens and food areas.

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.

  • Keyed-alike locking options
  • Manual or electric operation
  • Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
  • Bottom-rail or counter locks

Rules in Scotland

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 Scotland the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 require the duty holder to keep fire safety measures, including fire shutters, maintained in efficient working order and good repair.

Counter & hatch shutters: common questions

Are counter shutters manual?

Most are manual and spring balanced. Wider counters can be motorised.

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 a bar shutter look like wood?

Yes. Timber-effect and powder-coated finishes are available so the shutter suits the bar.

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
