Bi-fold and folding shop fronts Lincolnshire

Wind exposure differs across the East Midlands, so we match the sill, seals and track to the position of your Lincolnshire frontage. A folding front lets a Lincolnshire cafe or bar open to the street in good weather and still close up securely at night.

What do we offer in Lincolnshire?

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

Top-hung trackThe weight is carried from the head, so the structure above has to be level and strong enough.

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

How much does it cost in Lincolnshire?

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

Common questions

Do you cover all of Lincolnshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Lincolnshire, including Barton-upon-Humber, Boston, Cleethorpes, Gainsborough.

How many panels does a bi-fold front need?

That depends on the width of the opening, with panels usually around 700 to 1,100 mm wide. An odd number of panels lets one work as a single traffic door for daily use, so you do not have to fold the whole front.

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.

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.
