Aluminium cladding and ACM panels in Northern Ireland
Owners across the area can ask us to match an existing RAL colour, which keeps a new section in line with the rest of a Northern Ireland building.
Cladding can cover tired brickwork on your Northern Ireland premises, but we check the wall behind first so that no defect is hidden. We measure columns, soffits and fascias together on one visit, so that panel joints line up neatly across your Northern Ireland frontage.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Northern Ireland?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Northern Ireland, including Antrim, Armagh, Ballymena, Bangor, County Down. Remote areas are by arrangement.
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.
What is the difference between ACM and solid aluminium?
ACM has a core between two thin aluminium skins, so it is lighter, flatter and easier to fold. Solid aluminium sheet has no core, which removes any question about core material, but it is heavier and may need more stiffening on large panels.
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.
Do the same rules apply in Northern Ireland?
Rules differ in Northern Ireland, so we confirm what applies to your premises before work starts.
