Aluminium shopfronts across Mid Glamorgan
Our aluminium shopfronts team works across Mid Glamorgan and the wider South Wales, taking projects from first survey to final clean in towns including Merthyr Tydfil, Pontypridd, Caerphilly.
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 is shopfitting like in Mid Glamorgan?
Most enquiries we get from Mid Glamorgan come from boutiques and independent retailers or convenience stores and off-licences, and the survey is where we pick up the details that change the price.
South Wales town centres, from the capital to the valleys, have many older terraced shop units where fit-outs need careful work around existing structure and services.
What does the work include?
- Single, double or automatic doors
- Level threshold and accessible door handles
- Stallriser and fascia panel
- Measured survey of the opening

- 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.
