Sheet 00 · Shopfronts, shutters, glazing
Shopfronts drawn for the council before they are drawn for you
We design and fit aluminium shopfronts, roller shutters and commercial glazing across the UK, and repair them within 100 road miles of Birmingham. Every job starts with the question that decides whether it goes ahead: what will your council actually accept on that building?
We reply to emergency repair calls within two hours.
The question nobody else answers
What am I allowed to put here — and what will look right?
Give the frontage check your postcode, whether the building is listed or in a conservation area, and what you want to fit. It tells you which consents you are likely to need, what that council’s own guidance says, and the specification we would put in front of their planning officer. The answer comes first. If you then want our view on your actual building, you can send a photo.
