Choosing counter & hatch shutters for premises in Motherwell
Counter shutters use slim laths and a compact box so they fit above a hatch without taking much space. Fire-rated counter shutters need the same regular testing as larger fire shutters.
Schools, hospitals and canteens use counter shutters to close servery areas between meals. Most are manual, lifted and locked by hand, with electric operation available on wider counters.
What's included
- Face or reveal fixing
- Slim laths and compact box
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
- Bottom-rail or counter locks

Rules in Scotland
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 Motherwell?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair counter & hatch shutters in Motherwell and the ML1 district, as part of our coverage across Lanarkshire.
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.
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.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
