Bi-fold and folding shop fronts West Midlands

Wind exposure differs across the area, so we match the sill, seals and track to the position of your West Midlands frontage. We check the head above your West Midlands opening at the free survey, because a top-hung system relies on a level and strong structure.

What do we offer in West Midlands?

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

Stack both waysPanels split and fold to each side, which helps when the entrance needs to stay central.

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 West Midlands?

Expect £3,495 to £8,995 ex VAT per opening. Neighbours and licensing conditions can matter once the front opens, so businesses in the area should check any noise limits on their West Midlands premises first. Your written quote shows travel, access and any out-of-hours work.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of West Midlands?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across West Midlands, including Aldridge, Bilston, Birmingham, Bloxwich.

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.

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.

Can a bi-fold front be used as a fire exit?

Not by default. An escape door must open easily without special knowledge, and a multi-panel fold often does not, so the traffic door or a separate exit usually serves that role. Your fire risk assessment should cover this and be kept up to date.
