Costs

The entry price is about £5,200 plus VAT. Your quote depends on the opening size, the finish and how easy access is. Your price is held for 90 days.

How long it takes

Expect 4-5 weeks after drawing sign-off for manufacture. The install itself rarely takes more than two days for a standard opening. If you cannot close, we can work outside trading hours.

The product

Folding the whole frontage back turns the glass line into open trading space, so pavement seating reads as part of the room. Options include low-profile threshold when open; traffic door built into the run for daily use.

We treat Solihull as part of our West Midlands round including the B postcodes, so the team is regularly nearby in Halesowen, Stourbridge and Wednesbury.

Permission and Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council

Common questions

Can you match the units either side?

On a parade where the landlord wants a consistent frontage, we work to the same section profile and colour reference so the unit reads as part of the row.

What do you need from me to quote?

The address, roughly what you want, and a photo of the current frontage. Opening sizes help but are not essential, because we measure at survey anyway.
