Aluminium shopfronts for Musselburgh businesses
Need aluminium shopfronts in Musselburgh? We survey the unit, draw the layout with you and give a fixed, itemised price before anything is ordered.
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.
What happens at the survey?
Every aluminium shopfronts quote for Musselburgh lists each element separately, so you can see what the layout, joinery, services and finishes each cost.
In and around Musselburgh we are usually asked to work on pharmacies and healthcare premises and showrooms and trade counters.

- Powder-coated aluminium frames in any RAL colour
- Toughened or laminated safety glass

What should Musselburgh owners check first?
- Entrance doors should give a clear opening width that suits wheelchair users.
- Laminated glass holds together if broken, which helps security.
- A new shopfront usually needs planning permission, and more in a conservation area.
In Scotland, most fit-out work that alters the building needs a building warrant from the local authority before work starts, followed by a completion certificate. Planning permission and advertisement consent are separate, and Scottish councils publish their own shopfront design guidance.
