Curved glass shop fronts in Cornwall
We measure curves on site in Cornwall and make a template, because a bent pane cannot be cut or adjusted once delivered.
If your Cornwall shop sits on a corner, a curved pane can carry the display around it where the structure allows. An original bowed window on Cornwall premises may be protected, so we check listed status before suggesting any change.

Which towns do you cover?
Common questions
Do you cover all of Cornwall?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Cornwall, including Bodmin, Falmouth, Newquay, Penzance.
Can curved glass be double glazed?
Yes, curved sealed units are made from two matching bent panes. They cost more and take longer than flat units, and the frame must suit the extra depth. In England, Approved Document L sets no maximum U-value for display windows, so single glazing often remains an option.
Can any glass be curved?
Most float glass can be bent, but the size, thickness and radius are limited by the process. Tight curves and large panes are the hardest. The glass processor confirms what is possible before we finalise the design, so you are not quoted for something that cannot be made.
Do I need planning permission for a curved glass frontage?
Usually yes in England, as a curved front normally changes the look of the building. Replacing an original curved window like for like is different, but listed status can still require consent. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we check this for your building.
