Bi-fold and folding shop fronts Berkshire

Installing a bi-fold in Berkshire usually means taking out the old front, and teams working across the South East can plan that around your trading hours. Wind exposure differs across the South East, so we match the sill, seals and track to the position of your Berkshire frontage.

What do we offer in Berkshire?

Low threshold trackA recessed or low floor track helps wheelchair users and reduces trip risk, although weather sealing then needs more care.

Bottom-rolling trackThe weight runs on the floor track, which can suit older openings with a weak head. The track needs regular cleaning.

Stack to one sideAll panels fold to one end, often with a single traffic door built in for daily use.

How much does it cost in Berkshire?

The guide price is £3,495 to £8,995 ex VAT per opening. Neighbours and licensing conditions can matter once the front opens, so businesses in the South East should check any noise limits on their Berkshire premises first. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Berkshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Berkshire, including Bracknell, Maidenhead, Newbury, Reading.

Will a folding front let in draughts?

A well-fitted system seals when closed, using gaskets and a weather bar at the sill. The trade-off is at the threshold: a flatter track is easier for wheelchairs but less weather resistant. We design the sill around the exposure of your frontage and any drainage needed.

Are bi-fold shop fronts secure?

Yes, when they are closed with multi-point locks and hinges that cannot be lifted out from outside. Each panel locks to its neighbour, with shootbolts into the head and floor. For higher-risk premises, laminated glass or an internal grille adds further protection.

Do I need planning permission for a bi-fold shop front?

Usually yes in England, because replacing a frontage with folding panels can materially change its appearance. Tables on the pavement may also need a licence. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we go through this with you at survey.
