What to know about counter & hatch shutters in Canterbury
Counter shutters use slim laths and a compact box so they fit above a hatch without taking much space. 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. Fire-rated counter shutters need the same regular testing as larger fire shutters.
Options we can specify
- Slim laths and compact box
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens

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.

Before you book in Canterbury
Do you cover Canterbury?
Yes. Canterbury (CT1) is within our Kent coverage, along with nearby Whitstable, Herne Bay and Faversham.
Can counter shutters be keyed alike?
Yes, the locks can be keyed alike so one key opens several shutters.
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 you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
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.
