Counter & hatch shutters in South Shields: the essentials

Bars and pubs often choose timber-effect or powder-coated shutters that suit the interior. 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. Satin-anodised aluminium is easy to keep clean in kitchens and food areas.

What's included

  • Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
  • Slim laths and compact box
  • Bottom-rail or counter locks
  • Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes
  • Keyed-alike locking options
  • Face or reveal fixing

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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Counter & hatch shutters: common questions

Do you cover South Shields?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair counter & hatch shutters in South Shields and the NE33 district, as part of our coverage across Tyne and Wear.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
