Choosing counter & hatch shutters for premises in Sunderland
Schools, hospitals and canteens use counter shutters to close servery areas between meals. Fire-rated counter shutters need the same regular testing as larger fire shutters.
Counter shutters use slim laths and a compact box so they fit above a hatch without taking much space. Counter shutters can be face-fixed in front of the opening or fitted between the reveals.
Specification options
- Manual or electric operation
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Easy-clean finishes for kitchens
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- Aluminium, steel and timber-effect finishes

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.

Do you cover Sunderland?

Are counter shutters manual?
Most are manual and spring balanced. Wider counters can be motorised.
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.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
