Aluminium shopfronts across Rutland
Our aluminium shopfronts team works across Rutland and the wider East Midlands, taking projects from first survey to final clean in towns including Uppingham, Oakham.
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.

Typical Rutland jobs for this service involve high street units and corner shops, as well as boutiques and independent retailers. We check the lease, access and service capacity before pricing.
East Midlands town centres combine older Victorian parades with newer precincts, and many fit-outs involve updating dated units for food, beauty and convenience retailers.

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.
- Entrance doors should give a clear opening width that suits wheelchair users.
