Steel shopfronts start at around £3,600 plus VAT. Width, height, finish and access move the final figure. Once issued, the price is fixed for 90 days unless the specification changes.
From order to fitted
Allow 5-6 weeks after drawing sign-off from drawings to delivery. Installation in Oakham is usually a day or two once everything is made. If you cannot close, we can work outside trading hours.
Specification notes
Steel takes an impact that aluminium will not, so it is the usual choice for units that have been targeted before or that sit on a late-night street. Popular choices include laminated glass options for attack resistance; crittall-style glazing bar patterns.
Coverage
Oakham falls within Rutland including the LE postcodes, so the team is regularly nearby in Uppingham.

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.

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.
