How counter & hatch shutters work, and what to ask for
Counter shutters can be face-fixed in front of the opening or fitted between the reveals. Where the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a fire-rated counter shutter keeps the wall's protection.
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
- Face or reveal fixing
- Fire-rated versions for compartment walls
- Bottom-rail or counter locks
- Keyed-alike locking options
- Slim laths and compact box
- 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.

Counter & hatch shutters: common questions
Do you cover Whitley Bay?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair counter & hatch shutters in Whitley Bay and the NE26 district, as part of our coverage across Tyne and Wear.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
