Counter & hatch shutters in Strood: the essentials
Fire-rated counter shutters need the same regular testing as larger fire shutters. Reception desks and ticket offices use them to secure the counter when staff are away.
Locks can be fitted at the bottom rail or into the counter, and keyed alike with other shutters. Counter shutters use slim laths and a compact box so they fit above a hatch without taking much space.
What's included
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Manual or electric operation
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
- Keyed-alike locking options

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Counter & hatch shutters: common questions
Do you cover Strood?
Yes. Strood (ME2) is within our Kent coverage, along with nearby Rochester, Chatham and Gillingham.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
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.
