Aluminium shopfronts for Frome businesses
Owners opening or refreshing a unit in Frome use our aluminium shopfronts service to get one contract, one programme and one point of contact.
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?
For Frome jobs we confirm loading and parking arrangements early, because access often shapes the programme as much as the build itself.
In and around Frome we are usually asked to work on boutiques and independent retailers and high street units and corner shops.
What is included?
- Toughened or laminated safety glass
- Single, double or automatic doors
- Level threshold and accessible door handles
- Stallriser and fascia panel
- Measured survey of the opening
What should Frome 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 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.
