Steel shopfronts, Derby
Steel shopfronts in Derby start from about £3,600 plus VAT for a standard opening, with a free survey and a written quotation before anything is ordered.
For Derby shops and offices, we start by measuring the actual opening, not a photo and the steel shopfronts are then made to those dimensions.
Timescales
Manufacture usually takes 5-6 weeks after drawing sign-off. The install itself rarely takes more than two days for a standard opening. Closed-day or out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Specification notes
Steel takes an impact that aluminium will not, so it is the usual choice for units that have been targeted before or that sit on a late-night street. Popular choices include slim steel sections with high impact resistance; laminated glass options for attack resistance.
