Aluminium shopfronts across Surrey
Our aluminium shopfronts team works across Surrey and the wider South East, taking projects from first survey to final clean in towns including Farnham, Guildford, Woking.
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 Surrey?
Typical Surrey jobs for this service involve high street units and corner shops, as well as convenience stores and off-licences. We check the lease, access and service capacity before pricing.
Across the South East, market towns with conservation areas sit next to large retail parks, so shopfront design often needs to satisfy planners on the high street while retail park units follow the landlord's specification.
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
What approvals might you need in Surrey?
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.
