Aluminium shopfronts contractors in Dudley
We carry out aluminium shopfronts in Dudley and the surrounding parts of the West Midlands, managing every trade from strip-out to a clean handover.
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.
How do we plan the job?
For Dudley jobs we confirm loading and parking arrangements early, because access often shapes the programme as much as the build itself.
In and around Dudley we are usually asked to work on showrooms and trade counters 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 Dudley 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.
