Curved glass shop fronts in Suffolk
We measure curves on site in Suffolk 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 of England are planned around access and unloading rules at your Suffolk premises. An original bowed window on Suffolk 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 Suffolk?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Suffolk, including Bury St Edmunds, Felixstowe, Ipswich, Lowestoft.
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.
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.
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.
