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.

Getting the right hatch grille for your building

Coil box or side stack

Roller grilles need a little head space; retractables need side space.

Fire separation

If the hatch is in a fire-resisting wall, a standard grille does not replace a fire shutter.

What the rules say in England

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 Newton-le-Willows: questions

Do you cover Golborne as well as Newton-le-Willows?

Yes. As well as Newton-le-Willows, we can arrange surveys in nearby Golborne, Ashton-in-Makerfield and Warrington, and elsewhere in Merseyside.

Are these grilles suitable for food areas?

Aluminium and stainless finishes are easy to clean and suit serveries.

Can a hatch grille be fire rated?

A standard security grille is not fire rated. If the hatch needs fire separation, a fire-rated shutter is required instead.

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.
