How counter & hatch shutters work, and what to ask for
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.
Options we can specify
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- Slim laths and compact box
- Manual or electric operation
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens

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.

Questions about counter & hatch shutters in Colne
Do you cover Colne?

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.
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.
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.
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.
