Aluminium frame repairs in Greater Manchester

A dented or loose aluminium frame on your Greater Manchester frontage can often be repaired section by section, leaving the sound parts untouched.

Fitters installing a new aluminium shopfront frame

Salt and traffic film can attack a frame's finish, so a shop in Greater Manchester or elsewhere in the North West will benefit from regular washing. We can arrange frame repairs in Greater Manchester or anywhere in the North West out of hours, overnight or at weekends, so the shop does not have to close.

What do we fix in Greater Manchester?

Impact damageLengths dented by vehicles, trolleys or forced entry are replaced, then finished to blend with the rest of the frame.
Water getting inBlocked weep holes, failed seals and poor cill joints are traced and put right.
Failed gaskets and beadsShrunken gaskets and loose beads let in water and allow the glass to move. We strip them out and fit new.

How much does it cost in Greater Manchester?

Budget £195 to £995 ex VAT for most repairs. If a van or forklift has struck your Greater Manchester shopfront, check whether the door still closes and whether the glass is still firmly held. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Greater Manchester?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Greater Manchester, including Altrincham, Ashton-under-Lyne, Bolton, Bury.

Do you need to take the glass out to repair the frame?

Not always. Cover caps, gaskets and small sections can often be changed with the glass in place. Larger repairs need the glass out, and we include any temporary boards in the price. Toughened panes cannot be reworked, so they are handled with care.

Can you match an old aluminium section?

Often, though not always exactly. Many shopfront profiles are common and remain available, while older ones may be discontinued. We look for a matching or compatible section, and if none exists, a folded cover piece or a new length of frame may be the answer.

Can a corroded aluminium frame be saved?

Usually yes, if the corrosion is on the surface. We remove loose material, treat it and refinish the area. Frames that have lost strength around fixings, corners or the cill need the affected section replacing, and we will tell you which applies.
