Steel shopfronts, Leicester
Steel shopfronts in Leicester start from about £3,600 plus VAT for a standard opening, with a free survey and a written quotation before anything is ordered.
For businesses in Leicester, we start by measuring the actual opening, not a photo and the steel shopfronts are then made to those dimensions.
Permission and Leicester City Council
In Leicester, applications go to Leicester City Council. Like-for-like work rarely needs consent, but anything that alters the look of the street usually needs consent. We check which applies to your unit at survey.
How much?
Budget from £3,600 plus VAT as a starting point. Size, specification and strip-out decide the exact number. Once issued, the price is fixed for 90 days unless the specification changes.
From order to fitted
Lead time is typically 5-6 weeks after drawing sign-off. On site, most Leicester jobs take one or two days. If you cannot close, we can work outside trading hours.
About the product
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. You can specify pairs well with a roller shutter for two layers of delay; slim steel sections with high impact resistance.

Before you book
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
Yes. We cover Leicester and the rest of Leicestershire, including Melton Mowbray, Coalville and Market Harborough.
What guarantee do I get?
Every installation comes with a written guarantee, and manufacturer warranties on hardware, motors and finishes are passed to you. The terms are set out on your quotation.
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.
