- Approvals: Where a fire-rated counter shutter is part of building work, such as a new hatch in a fire-resisting wall, building regulations approval is needed from local authority building control.
- Hygiene: In food areas, choose finishes that are easy to clean and keep the bottom rail clear of food prep.
