Aluminium shopfronts in Blackburn
Owners opening or refreshing a unit in Blackburn use our aluminium shopfronts service to get one contract, one programme and one point of contact.
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?
Before we price aluminium shopfronts in Blackburn, we check the lease, the landlord's fit-out rules, the existing services and how materials can get into the unit.
In and around Blackburn we are usually asked to work on showrooms and trade counters and boutiques and independent retailers.
What is included?
- Measured survey of the opening
- Powder-coated aluminium frames in any RAL colour
- Toughened or laminated safety glass
- Single, double or automatic doors
- Level threshold and accessible door handles
What should Blackburn 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.
