Curved glass shop fronts Leicestershire

We measure curves on site in Leicestershire and make a template, because a bent pane cannot be cut or adjusted once delivered. Bent glass needs careful handling, so deliveries across the East Midlands are planned around access and unloading rules at your Leicestershire premises.

What do we offer in Leicestershire?

Bent laminated glassTwo bent plies are joined with an interlayer and hold together if cracked. This suits higher-risk positions.

Bent toughened glassThe pane is heated, bent and then toughened, so it breaks safely like flat toughened glass. The glass processor sets the limits on size and radius.

Curved double-glazed unitsTwo curved panes form a sealed unit for heated premises, at a higher price and with a longer lead time.

How much does it cost in Leicestershire?

As a guide, allow £6,495 to £15,995 ex VAT for a typical frontage. Curved glass costs more than flat, so we can also price a faceted option for Leicestershire owners in the East Midlands who want a similar effect. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Leicestershire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Leicestershire, including Coalville, Hinckley, Leicester, Loughborough.

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.

What happens if a curved pane breaks?

It has to be remade to the same template, so replacement takes longer than for flat glass. The opening can be boarded or temporarily glazed in the meantime. Keep the template details with your insurance paperwork, and ask your insurer how long it will cover the gap.

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.
