Steel shopfronts, Smethwick
Steel shopfronts in Smethwick 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 Smethwick, a surveyor measures the unit before anything is priced so the quotation for the steel shopfronts is a real figure.
Do you need consent?
In Smethwick, applications go to Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council. Replacing an existing frontage in the same style seldom needs permission, though external shutters and lit signs normally need approval. The survey confirms which rules apply.
How much?
Budget from £3,600 plus VAT as a starting point. The real figure comes from the survey measurements. The written quotation is valid for 90 days.
From order to fitted
Allow 5-6 weeks after drawing sign-off from drawings to delivery. The install itself rarely takes more than two days for a standard opening. Early starts and closed-day fitting are both possible.
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. Options include slim steel sections with high impact resistance; laminated glass options for attack resistance.

FAQs
Do you cover the whole of West Midlands?
Yes. We cover Smethwick and the rest of West Midlands, including Darlaston, Birmingham and Wolverhampton.
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.
