Aluminium shopfronts in Oldham
We carry out aluminium shopfronts in Oldham and the surrounding parts of Greater Manchester, managing every trade from strip-out to a clean handover.
An aluminium shopfront is the glazed frame, doors and stallriser that make up the front of a shop, made to measure in powder-coated aluminium with toughened or laminated safety glass.
How is the work priced?
The survey for aluminium shopfronts in Oldham covers measurements, service capacity, access for deliveries and any planning or building control points.
In and around Oldham we are usually asked to work on boutiques and independent retailers and high street units and corner shops.

- Toughened or laminated safety glass
- Single, double or automatic doors
- Level threshold and accessible door handles
- Stallriser and fascia panel
What should Oldham 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.
