Why choose the Lightweight Servery Bar Shutter?

The Lightweight Servery Shutter is designed specifically for indoor and outdoor servery openings, café counters, hospitality bars, kiosks, and domestic kitchen pass-throughs where lightweight coverage and visual separation are key. Unlike heavy-duty shutters that focus on high security, the RA2 prioritises clean looks, energy efficiency, and space-saving design—ideal for venues that value style and convenience.

Key benefits include:

Compact and Discreet Design: The Lightweight Shutter uses a slimline box and guide system that fits neatly above counters or within recesses, preserving the visual appeal of your bar or kitchen area.
Insulated 40mm Aluminium Slats: These laths provide moderate insulation, helping maintain indoor temperatures and reducing glare from sunlight.
Privacy and Visual Separation: Perfect for closing off service areas during off-hours or hiding equipment and stock from view.

Whether you're running a restaurant, hotel bar, café, or upgrading your home kitchen, the Lightweight Shutter offers a smart solution for daytime and overnight use.

Manual & Electric Operation Options

Tailor your Lightweight shutter to suit your workflow with flexible control systems:

Manual Options:

Swivel Belt Winder – Basic internal control using a pull tape system.
Rod Crank Handle – Geared manual operation for smooth winding.
Spring & Lock – Easy lift with a key-lockable bottom bar for added control.

Electric Options:

Remote Controls & Wall Switches – Ideal for frequent use in busy bars.
Smart Home Integration – Compatible with Alexa and other automation systems.

Choose from over 20 powder-coated colours to match your branding or interior design.
