    THE ADVANTAGES

    Why Choose an Aluminium Shopfront?

    Aluminium is the top choice for modern commercial shopfronts. Here's why thousands of UK businesses pick it for their premises.

    Exceptional Durability & Longevity

    Aluminium shopfronts are built for daily use, knocks and heavy footfall. They last 20 to 30 years with very little upkeep. That makes aluminium one of the best-value shopfront materials you can buy.

    Total Weather & Rust Resistance

    Unlike steel or timber, aluminium does not rust, corrode or warp in rain, wind, sun or salt air. That suits the UK climate and coastal towns. It keeps its look all year with no treatments or repainting.

    Virtually Zero Maintenance

    Just wipe it down with warm soapy water every few months to keep it looking sharp. There's no sanding, staining or repainting — unlike timber fronts, which need regular, costly upkeep. Over the shopfront's life, that saves you a lot.

    Unlimited Design Flexibility

    Pick from the full RAL colour system — over 1,000 shades — to match your brand exactly. You can also choose dual colours, custom profile widths, full-glazing or traditional mullion designs, and made-to-measure sizes. The design is yours.

    Energy Efficiency

    Double-glazed aluminium shopfronts keep heat in and cut heating bills by up to 30%. Thermally broken frames improve them further. Your premises stay warm for staff and customers, and your energy use drops.

    Enhanced Security

    Strong aluminium frames with laminated or anti-bandit glass form a tough barrier that protects your stock and premises. For entrance-specific options, see our commercial aluminium doors. Our shopfronts meet British Standards for security, so you and your customers can feel safe.

    OUR ALUMINIUM RANGE

    Aluminium Shopfront Solutions for Every Business

    From small shops to large commercial jobs, our aluminium shopfront systems suit every building type, planning need and look.

    Full-Height Glazed Aluminium Shopfront London
    Full-Height Glazed Systems

    Floor-to-ceiling glass in slim aluminium frames for maximum impact. Choose single or double glazing — ideal for fashion shops, restaurants and showrooms where visibility matters most. It creates a bright, welcoming entrance that pulls customers in.

    Framed Aluminium Shopfront with Mullions
    Framed Systems with Mullions

    Traditional yet modern — mullioned aluminium frames split the glass into neat panels, ideal for high streets where character matters. Choose any RAL colour, with single, double-glazed or tinted glass to suit your needs and budget.

    Security Enhanced Aluminium Shopfront
    Security-Enhanced Shopfronts

    Add integrated roller shutters, anti-bandit glass, multi-point locks and reinforced frames for strong overnight security. It's British Standards compliant and built to meet insurer requirements for commercial premises. Where a certified doorset is specified, we also fit steel security doors.

    COMMERCIAL DOORS

    Commercial Aluminium Doors

    What a commercial building needs from a door has little to do with looks. It's how the door holds up after 200 open-close cycles a day, year after year. Commercial aluminium doors are built for that. Home products fitted to a shop entrance are not.

    Every commercial aluminium door we fit uses thermally broken frames, multi-point locks and toughened or laminated safety glass. We match each one to your security needs, your insurer's rules and the heat your building needs to hold. These aren't add-ons — they're standard on a commercial door.

    Systems We Supply and Install

    • Commercial entrance doors — single and double, inward and outward opening, multi-point locking as standard
    • Automatic sliding doors — bi-parting systems for high-footfall and fully accessible entrances, meeting Part M
    • Bi-fold and multi-fold systems — for wide retail frontages where a full-width opening is required
    • Curtain wall-integrated doors — for multi-storey commercial facades where the door is part of a larger glazing system
    • Emergency exit configurations — to BS EN 179 and BS EN 1125, for buildings with fire egress requirements

    FAQS

    Aluminium Shopfronts — Frequently Asked Questions

    Everything you need to know before commissioning your new aluminium shopfront.

    A complete aluminium and glass shopfront with a security shutter (normal or perforated) and single entry door — based on a 5m x 3m frontage — costs £3,500 + VAT including fitting. Prices may differ slightly or increase depending on exact size and design requirements. All prices exclude VAT. We provide a free, itemised no-obligation quote after a site survey so you receive an accurate price for your specific project. See our shop front pricing guide for a full cost breakdown. Our price match guarantee means you'll always get a competitive rate.

    From free survey to completed installation, the typical timeline is 7–10 working days for standard projects, including the manufacturing period for your bespoke frames. We provide a specific timeline at consultation stage. Emergency installations are also available for urgent requirements — contact us to discuss.

    We offer a full range of glazing including: toughened safety glass, laminated safety glass (6.4mm–10.8mm), tinted glass (solar control & privacy), double-glazed units (DGU) for thermal efficiency, and fire-rated pyro glass for enhanced fire safety compliance. Our surveyor recommends the most appropriate option for your premises and planning requirements.

    Absolutely. All our aluminium shopfronts are powder-coated from the complete RAL colour system — over 1,000 colours. We also offer dual-colour options, allowing a different shade inside and outside to suit your branding inside and out. View our RAL Colour Chart or bring a sample to your consultation for an exact match.

    Yes. We offer a rapid-response emergency shopfront repair service. Whether your shopfront has been damaged through vandalism, a vehicle strike, or a break-in attempt, our engineers can attend quickly to secure your premises and carry out necessary repairs. Call 074 1232 3200 for emergency assistance.

    Our free site survey covers: precise measurements of your opening, structural assessment, discussion of design preferences and brand requirements, review of planning or conservation area constraints, and a security review. You receive a detailed itemised quote within 48 hours — with no pressure or obligation to proceed.

    All our aluminium shopfront installations include a warranty covering manufacturing defects, installation quality, and materials. All work complies with British Standard BS 6262-4. After-sales maintenance and repair services are also available beyond the warranty period.

    Yes — we provide nationwide aluminium shopfront installation and repair across the UK. We regularly complete projects in Greater Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool, Leeds, Cardiff, Bristol, Sheffield, Swansea, and beyond. Contact us to confirm coverage for your specific location.

    Very little. A wipe-down with warm soapy water quarterly is all that's needed to keep your aluminium shopfront looking pristine. No repainting, re-staining, or specialist treatment required — a significant advantage over timber fronts. We recommend an annual hardware check to ensure optimal performance, available as part of a maintenance contract.

    We prioritise minimising disruption to your business. Our teams work efficiently — most standard installations are completed in one or two days. We can schedule work outside your trading hours where required and always leave the site clean and tidy on completion.

    In many cases, replacing a shopfront with a similar design does not require planning permission under permitted development rights. However, if your premises are in a conservation area, a listed building, or you are making significant facade changes, consent may be required. Our surveyors are experienced with local authority requirements and can advise you during the free survey.

    Aluminium offers significantly better durability, weather resistance, and lower lifetime maintenance costs than timber. Timber is a beautiful traditional material — preferred in conservation areas and period buildings — but requires regular repainting and treatment every few years. Aluminium, by contrast, is virtually maintenance-free, never warps or rots, and offers far greater colour choice. We install both — see our Timber Shopfronts page for details.

    Yes. We supply and fit commercial aluminium doors, including single and double entrance doors, as standalone installations or as part of a full aluminium shopfront, with security locking and thermally broken frames.

    We install aluminium shop fronts and commercial aluminium doors across Greater London and major UK cities including Manchester, Birmingham, Cardiff, Leeds and Bristol. Call 0330 113 0393 to confirm availability near you.
