Aluminium shopfronts contractors in Harlow
Need aluminium shopfronts in Harlow? We survey the unit, draw the layout with you and give a fixed, itemised price before anything is ordered.

What happens at the survey?
Before we price aluminium shopfronts in Harlow, we check the lease, the landlord's fit-out rules, the existing services and how materials can get into the unit.

What should Harlow owners check first?
- A new shopfront usually needs planning permission, and more in a conservation area.
- Entrance doors should give a clear opening width that suits wheelchair users.
- Laminated glass holds together if broken, which helps security.
In England, fit-out work that affects fire escape, structure, drainage or accessibility falls under the Building Regulations and is signed off by local authority or approved inspector building control. Shopfronts, extraction flues and illuminated signs are dealt with separately by the local planning authority.
