How counter & hatch shutters work, and what to ask for
Locks can be fitted at the bottom rail or into the counter, and keyed alike with other shutters. Reception desks and ticket offices use them to secure the counter when staff are away.
Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior. Schools, hospitals and canteens use counter shutters to close servery areas between meals.
What's included
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Slim laths and compact box
- Manual or electric operation
- 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.

Counter & hatch shutters: common questions
Do you cover Taunton?
Yes. Taunton (TA1) is within our Somerset coverage, along with nearby Bridgwater, Burnham-on-Sea and Tiverton.
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 counter shutters be keyed alike?
Yes, the locks can be keyed alike so one key opens several shutters.
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.
