Aluminium shopfronts in Shropshire
If you are opening, moving or refreshing a unit in Shropshire, our aluminium shopfronts service covers the layout, the build and the paperwork, with work planned around 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 is shopfitting like in Shropshire?
In Shropshire we mostly see pharmacies and healthcare premises and salons, barbers and beauty clinics. Each has its own landlord rules, service loads and access limits, which we look at on the first visit.
The West Midlands is home ground for us — we are based in Great Barr, Birmingham — and covers everything from city-centre units to Black Country high streets and shopping centres.
What does the work include?
- Toughened or laminated safety glass
- Single, double or automatic doors
- Level threshold and accessible door handles
- Stallriser and fascia panel
What approvals might you need in Shropshire?
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.
- Laminated glass holds together if broken, which helps security.
