How counter & hatch shutters work, and what to ask for
Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior. Locks can be fitted at the bottom rail or into the counter, and keyed alike with other shutters.
Counter shutters can be face-fixed in front of the opening or fitted between the reveals. Schools, hospitals and canteens use counter shutters to close servery areas between meals.
Specification options
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Manual or electric operation
- Slim laths and compact box
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls

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 Darwen?
Yes. Darwen (BB3) is within our Lancashire coverage, along with nearby Blackburn, Accrington and Chorley.
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.
Can counter shutters be keyed alike?
Yes, the locks can be keyed alike so one key opens several shutters.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
