Shopfronts & doors
Fully opening frontages for cafes, bars and restaurants across the Midlands, from £5,200 plus VAT.
Free survey, no obligation.
Folding the whole frontage back turns four metres of glass into four metres of open trading space. Popular with cafes and bars that want pavement seating to read as part of the room.
Nothing is ordered until you have a written price and have agreed it. The survey costs you nothing and carries no obligation — plenty of people use it simply to find out what the job would involve before they budget for it.
Lead time from approval of the drawings is typically three to four weeks, and we will tell you at survey if the section you want is on a longer run.
Tell us the address and roughly what you need and a surveyor will come out at a time that suits the business.
On a parade where the landlord requires a consistent frontage, we work from the same section profiles and colour reference so the new unit reads as part of the row.
For a like-for-like replacement, usually not. You will need consent for a listed building, in a conservation area, or where you change the appearance of the frontage or add illuminated signage. We can tell you which applies at survey, though the application itself is between you and the council.
Yes. Overnight and closed-day installation is normal for units that cannot lose a trading day, and the premises are left secure at every stage of the work.
Yes. Shopfront glass must be toughened or laminated and kitemarked in a critical location, so panes are ordered to the surveyed size — which means a same-day swap is rarely possible on anything large. Boarding secures the opening in the meantime.
Any RAL colour on aluminium and steel. Anthracite grey (RAL 7016) and black (RAL 9005) are the most common on high-street units, but the powder coater will match whatever your brand standard specifies.
