What to know about counter & hatch shutters in Margate
Fire-rated counter shutters need the same regular testing as larger fire shutters. Where the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a fire-rated counter shutter keeps the wall's protection.
Most are manual, lifted and locked by hand, with electric operation available on wider counters. Reception desks and ticket offices use them to secure the counter when staff are away.
What's included
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- Face or reveal fixing
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
- Bottom-rail or counter locks

Rules in England
