Leicester: aluminium shopfronts
Aluminium shopfronts in Leicester start from about £2,450 plus VAT for a standard opening, with a free survey and a written quotation before anything is ordered.
For businesses in Leicester, we start by measuring the actual opening, not a photo which is how the aluminium shopfronts end up the right size.
How long it takes
Lead time is typically 3-4 weeks after drawing sign-off. The install itself rarely takes more than two days for a standard opening. We can fit on a day the business is shut.
About the product
Aluminium is the default for high-street retail because the sections stay slim, the powder coat can match any brand colour, and the frame will not rot, swell or warp. You can specify any RAL colour, including dual-colour frames; toughened or laminated safety glass to BS EN 12150 / 14449.

Before you book
What guarantee do I get?
Every installation comes with a written guarantee, and manufacturer warranties on hardware, motors and finishes are passed to you. The terms are set out on your quotation.
Can you match the units either side?
On a parade where the landlord wants a consistent frontage, we work to the same section profile and colour reference so the unit reads as part of the row.
What do you need from me to quote?
The address, roughly what you want, and a photo of the current frontage. Opening sizes help but are not essential, because we measure at survey anyway.
