FOR SHOPFITTERS & TRADESAluminium shopfronts, supply only
Complete shopfront framing — glazing bays, doors and fascia zones — manufactured to your survey sizes and supplied direct to shopfitters, builders and unit owners nationwide.
A shopfront is a frame first and a shop window second: mullions, transoms and door framing that have to carry big safety glass, take the daily abuse of a trading entrance, and still line up with the fascia above. We manufacture that framing to your survey sizes and supply it direct — the way shopfitters have always preferred to buy.
Send your survey — bay widths, overall height, door position and swing — and we return a priced, fabricated shopfront: aluminium framing, toughened or laminated safety glazing, and the entrance door hung the way the unit trades. Fascia zones are framed in so your signage contractor has a clean, level canvas.
Supply-only keeps the job in your control. Your team installs to their programme; we make sure everything arrives fabricated, labelled and correct to the survey, anywhere in the UK.
Doors that survive trading
Shopfront doors live a hard life. Specify hinged or floor-spring pivot doors, single or double, with push/pull furniture, closers, and locking to suit the unit — and matching kick plates where trolleys and deliveries do their worst.
Safety glazing throughout
Glazing in shopfronts must be safety glass — we supply toughened as standard, with laminated and toughened-laminated options where security or specific regulations call for it. Large panes are cut to your bay sizes so site glazing is an assembly job, not a cutting job.
Fascia and signage zones
The framing includes the fascia zone above the glazing line, giving a straight, rigid band for signage trays and lettering. Tell us the fascia depth your signage plan needs and we'll frame to it.

Aluminium Shopfronts — questions we answer daily
What do you need to quote a shopfront?
A simple survey: overall width and height, bay layout, door position, size and swing, plus the fascia depth if signage is planned. Photos of the existing frontage help us flag anything unusual before we price.
Is shopfront glazing toughened?
Yes — safety glazing is standard. We supply toughened glass throughout, with laminated or toughened-laminated options where extra security or specific compliance is required.
Can you supply the shopfront door separately?
Yes. We supply complete shopfronts, door-and-screen sets, or commercial doors alone — whatever the job needs. See our aluminium entrance doors page for standalone doors.
Do you fit shopfronts?
No — we're supply-only, which is exactly why shopfitters and builders use us. You keep the installation, the programme and the client relationship; we supply the fabricated frontage at a trade price.
Which colours do commercial shopfronts come in?
Any RAL colour, powder-coated to order. Anthracite, black and silver-grey dominate the high street, but brand-matched colours are no problem.
