Counter & hatch shutters in Kirkwall: the essentials

Satin-anodised aluminium is easy to keep clean in kitchens and food areas. Counter shutters use slim laths and a compact box so they fit above a hatch without taking much space.

Before you book in Kirkwall
Do you cover Kirkwall?
Yes. Kirkwall (KW15) is within our Highlands & Islands coverage, along with the rest of Highlands & Islands.
Can a bar shutter look like wood?
Yes. Timber-effect and powder-coated finishes are available so the shutter suits the bar.
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.
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.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
