Rules that apply in London
In London, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Approvals: Where a fire-rated counter shutter is part of building work, such as a new hatch in a fire-resisting wall, building control approval is needed, from the council or a registered building control approver.
- Fire separation: If the hatch breaks a fire-resisting wall, the shutter must be a tested fire-rated product installed to the manufacturer's instructions; a standard counter shutter will not do.
- Hygiene: In food areas, choose finishes that are easy to clean and keep the bottom rail clear of food prep.

Counter & servery shutters in London: questions
Do I need a fire-rated counter shutter?
If the hatch is in a wall that is meant to resist fire, such as a kitchen wall onto a corridor, yes. Your fire risk assessment or building drawings will usually say.
What finish is best for kitchens?
Stainless steel or anodised aluminium are easy to wipe down and resist corrosion.
Do you cover London?
Yes. London and London's postcode districts are part of our coverage across Greater London.
How much do counter & servery shutters cost in London?
We use the same UK guide prices in London; after the survey you get a fixed written price for your opening.
