Aluminium shop fronts in Alnwick

Landlords with several units in Northumberland can use one frame profile and RAL colour, so an Alnwick frontage matches the rest of the estate.

Fitting teams working across Northumberland can work overnight or at weekends, so your Alnwick shop can keep trading through the changeover. A new aluminium shop front in Alnwick starts with a free survey, so the written fixed quote reflects your actual opening and not a guess.

Work in Alnwick is run from Birmingham, roughly 199 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Postcodes we work in around here include NE65, NE66, NE67, and we also cover Morpeth, Ashington and Blyth nearby.

What can we fit in Alnwick?

Powder coat or anodised finishPowder coat comes in the full RAL range, from matt to gloss. Anodising gives a metallic finish that forms part of the metal surface rather than a coat on top.
Recessed entranceThe door sits back from the building line behind angled glass return panels. This adds display length and gives customers a sheltered threshold.
Narrow or wide stile doorsNarrow stiles keep the glass area up. Wider stiles and mid rails leave more room for locks and handles on hard-used doors.

What does it cost in Alnwick?

As a guide, an aluminium shop front costs £2,495 to £7,995 ex VAT for a typical 3 to 5 m frontage, supplied and fitted. The final figure depends on width and height, glass type, the number of doors, any recessed entrance, thermally broken framing and how much of the old front needs stripping out. You get a free survey and a written fixed quote before anything is ordered.

If your Alnwick unit has a damaged lintel or rotten subframe, we find it at survey and price it before any frame is ordered. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Alnwick job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you work in NE65, NE66, NE67?

Yes. Alnwick and the NE65, NE66, NE67 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Northumberland. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

Does an aluminium shop front need double glazing?

Not usually in England. Approved Document L sets no maximum U-value for display windows, so single-glazed safety glass is common, but ask building control what applies to your doors and other windows. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have their own energy rules, so we confirm what applies to your unit.

Do I need planning permission for a new aluminium shop front?

Usually yes in England, if the new front materially changes how the building looks. A like-for-like repair usually does not need it. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we check first and can prepare drawings, though the council makes the decision.

Do I need planning permission for a new shopfront in Alnwick?

Usually yes, if the new front changes how the building looks. Like-for-like repairs usually don't. Your local planning authority decides, and we can prepare the drawings. Signs and external shutters have their own rules.
