Aluminium cladding and ACM panels in Greater London

Core choice depends on the building, so we confirm the fire requirements for your Greater London premises before choosing a panel.

Anthracite aluminium composite panels fitted to a fascia

Cladding can cover tired brickwork on your Greater London premises, but we check the wall behind first so that no defect is hidden. Owners across London can ask us to match an existing RAL colour, which keeps a new section in line with the rest of a Greater London building.

ACM panelsTwo aluminium skins and a core make a flat, light panel that is easy to rout and fold into trays.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Greater London?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Greater London, including Acton, Barking, Brixton, Bromley.

How do I clean aluminium cladding?

Wash it with water and a neutral detergent, at intervals that suit the site. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents. Near the sea or a busy road, wash more often, because salt and traffic film can wear the finish. Follow the coating maker's guidance to keep its warranty valid.

Do I need planning permission for shop cladding?

Usually yes in England, if the cladding materially alters how the building looks. Recladding a fascia like for like may not need it, but a new colour or material across a facade usually will. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and listed buildings need extra care.

Can cladding go over existing brickwork?

Yes, using a support frame fixed back to sound brickwork, with a ventilated gap behind the panels. We check the substrate first, as loose render or damp walls need attention before anything covers them. Insulation and cavity barriers may also be required under building regulations.
