What is the price of counter and hatch grilles in Whitefield?
Budget £595 to £1,795 plus VAT (£714 to £2,154 inc VAT) per hatch for counter and hatch grilles in Whitefield, supplied and fitted. Size, number of leaves, colour and access all move the price, which is fixed in writing after the survey.
A counter or hatch grille is a small roller or retractable grille that closes off a serving hatch, kiosk window, bar or reception counter. It secures the opening between the public side and the stock or till behind, while staying compact enough for tight spaces.
What goes into a hatch grille
- Neat integration with countertops
- Bottom-rail or side locks
- Stainless or aluminium to suit food areas
- Brushed, anodised or powder-coated finishes
- Fixing to counters, bulkheads or subframes
- Retractable options where there is side space

Questions we will ask at the survey
Fire separation
If the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a standard grille does not replace a fire shutter.
Coil box or side stack
Roller grilles need a little head space; retractables need side space.
Planning and safety in England
Grilles across exits in business premises
In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.

Counter and hatch grilles in Whitefield: questions
Do you cover Radcliffe as well as Whitefield?
Yes. As well as Whitefield, we can arrange surveys in nearby Radcliffe, Prestwich and Bury, and elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
Can you fit it into an existing counter?
Yes, by fixing to the counter structure or a subframe built into it.
Are these grilles suitable for food areas?
Aluminium and stainless finishes are easy to clean and suit serveries.
Will the grille fit under our ceiling?
Compact roller grilles need only a small box. If there is no head space, a retractable grille that folds to the side works instead.
