Frameless glass shop fronts in Northumberland
Bright displays can lose impact behind green-tinted glass, so shops in Northumberland and across the North East often ask us about low-iron panes.
For a Northumberland shop where the display does the selling, frameless glass removes the upright frames that interrupt the view from the pavement. A glass frontage in the North East still has to meet the safety glazing and marking rules for your nation, and we design your Northumberland job around them.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Northumberland?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Northumberland, including Alnwick, Ashington, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Blyth.
Is a frameless glass shop front secure?
It can be, but the glass choice decides it. Toughened glass is strong yet breaks into small pieces and leaves the opening clear, while laminated glass holds together. For stock worth stealing, we suggest laminated panes along with a shutter or an internal grille.
How thick does frameless shopfront glass need to be?
Most ground-floor frameless panes are 12 mm or 15 mm toughened, with the final thickness set by height, wind exposure and support. Tall or exposed panes may need a glass calculation. Fins or a laminated build-up can be added where the span requires them.
Does frameless glass need markings?
Yes, on most large clear panes. In England, Approved Document K asks for manifestation on large clear glazing in two zones, 850 to 1000 mm and 1400 to 1600 mm above floor level. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have their own guidance, so we confirm it for your site.
