What to know about counter & hatch shutters in Sandown
Where the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a fire-rated counter shutter keeps the wall's protection. Reception desks and ticket offices use them to secure the counter when staff are away.
Most are manual, lifted and locked by hand, with electric operation available on wider counters. Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior.

Rules in England
Fire safety law and fire shutters
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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Sandown?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Sandown. We also cover nearby Ryde, Cowes and Gosport.
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.
Are counter shutters manual?
Most are manual and spring balanced. Wider counters can be motorised.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
