Commercial shopfronts · 12 Midlands counties
Twelve counties, one way of working: measure the opening, price it properly, fit it around the business.
Most enquiries get an indication the same working day.
No figure is given until someone has stood in front of the opening with a tape measure.
One itemised price covering materials, labour, disposal and making good. No day-two extras.
If the unit trades seven days, the frontage goes in overnight. That is normal, not a favour.
The people who fit your frontage work the same towns every week and know the parades.

Common questions
Installation is guaranteed for 12 months. Manufacturer warranties on hardware, motors and powder coating run longer and are passed to you in writing on completion.
Yes, and there is no obligation attached to it. A number of people book one purely to get a realistic figure before they commit to a lease or set a refurbishment budget.
Usually yes, provided the lintel will take the load and there is headroom for the barrel. That is one of the first things checked at survey.
It depends on the opening width, the material and whether the existing frontage needs stripping out. As a guide, an aluminium frontage on a standard single unit usually starts around £2,450 plus VAT. The survey gives you a fixed written figure rather than a range.
A straightforward shopfront is one to two days on site once manufactured. Manufacturing is typically three to four weeks from the point you approve the drawings. Shutters alone are usually a single day.
