Baron Hayter, of Chislehurst in the County of Kent, is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1927 for the businessman Sir George Chubb, 1st Baronet.

He was succeeded by his son, the second baron. He was managing director of Chubb and Sons Lock and Safe Co Ltd. His son, the third baron, was managing director and chairman of Chubb and Sons Lock and Safe Co Ltd and also served as deputy chairman of the House of Lords from 1981 to 1995.
