Aluminium shopfronts contractors in Kelso
From the first measured survey to the day you open, our aluminium shopfronts work in Kelso is planned around your lease, your landlord and your trading hours.
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 Kelso lists each element separately, so you can see what the layout, joinery, services and finishes each cost.
In and around Kelso we are usually asked to work on convenience stores and off-licences and shopping centre units and retail park stores.
What is included?
- Single, double or automatic doors
- Level threshold and accessible door handles
- Stallriser and fascia panel
- Measured survey of the opening
- Powder-coated aluminium frames in any RAL colour
What should Kelso 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 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.
