Frameless glass shop fronts in Hexham
Bright displays can lose impact behind green-tinted glass, so shops in Hexham and across Northumberland often ask us about low-iron panes.
For a Hexham shop where the display does the selling, frameless glass removes the upright frames that interrupt the view from the pavement. Glass deliveries across Northumberland need safe handling, so we check rear access, loading and pavement space at your Hexham premises before ordering.
Work in Hexham is run from Birmingham, roughly 168 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Jobs in NE46 are planned alongside Consett and Stanley.

What does it cost in Hexham?
Frameless glass shop fronts usually cost £4,995 to £11,995 ex VAT for a typical frontage, supplied and fitted. Panel height matters most, because taller panes need thicker glass, fins and heavier lifting gear. Low-iron glass, laminated panes, heat soak testing, recessed channels and automatic door operators all add to the price. We check access for handling large glass at the free survey.
Security matters on a clear frontage, so we can pair your Hexham glass with laminated panes or an internal grille and check your insurer's conditions first. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so a Hexham shop can keep trading through the work.
Common questions
Do you cover Hexham?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Hexham and across Northumberland, including NE46. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.
What happens if a frameless pane breaks?
A replacement pane is measured and made to order, because toughened glass cannot be cut after processing. The opening can be boarded up in the meantime. Our 24/7 emergency line handles break-ins and smashed glass, and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call.
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.
Do I need planning permission for a new shopfront in Hexham?
Usually yes, if the new front changes how the building looks. Like-for-like repairs usually don't. Your local planning authority decides, and we can prepare the drawings. Signs and external shutters have their own rules.
