Pharmacy fit-out across Kent

Businesses across Kent use us for pharmacy fit-out because one team manages the design, the trades and the sign-off. We regularly quote in Dartford, Folkestone, Margate.

A pharmacy fit-out creates the dispensary, a private consultation room, the medicines counter and the retail area, with the security and storage controlled medicines need.

What is shopfitting like in Kent?

In Kent we mostly see salons, barbers and beauty clinics and cafés, takeaways and independent restaurants. Each has its own landlord rules, service loads and access limits, which we look at on the first visit.

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?

  • Controlled drugs cabinet fixing
  • Retail shelving and health displays
  • Security, CCTV and shutters
  • Dispensary benching and drug storage

What approvals might you need in Kent?

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.

  • The pharmacist needs a clear view of the medicines counter from the dispensary.
  • Controlled drugs cabinets must be fixed securely to the structure.
