How counter & hatch shutters work, and what to ask for
Counter shutters can be face-fixed in front of the opening or fitted between the reveals. 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. Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior.
Options we can specify
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Face or reveal fixing
- Manual or electric operation
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes

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 Dartford?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Dartford. We also cover nearby Bexley, Swanley and Welling.
Can counter shutters be keyed alike?
Yes, the locks can be keyed alike so one key opens several shutters.
Are counter shutters manual?
Most are manual and spring balanced. Wider counters can be motorised.
Can a bar shutter look like wood?
Yes. Timber-effect and powder-coated finishes are available so the shutter suits the bar.
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.
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.
