Choosing counter & hatch shutters for premises in Birkenhead
Fire-rated counter shutters need the same regular testing as larger fire shutters. Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior.
Where the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a fire-rated counter shutter keeps the wall's protection. Counter shutters use slim laths and a compact box so they fit above a hatch without taking much space.
Specification options
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Slim laths and compact box
- Manual or electric operation

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 Birkenhead?
Yes. Birkenhead (CH41) is within our Merseyside coverage, along with nearby Wallasey, Bebington and Bootle.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
