Shop awnings and blinds in Lancashire
A traditional blind can suit a period building, so owners in the North West can ask us to match a fascia box to their Lancashire premises.
We inspect the wall at your Lancashire premises for strength, because a folding-arm awning pulls hard on its brackets. A motor with a wind sensor suits staff who are too busy to watch the weather, and owners across the North West can add one to a Lancashire order.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Lancashire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Lancashire, including Accrington, Blackburn, Blackpool, Burnley.
Can I put my logo on an awning?
Yes. Logos and names can be printed or sign-written on the cover or valance. In England, advertising on an awning can count as a sign, so check the advertisement rules, particularly on listed buildings or in conservation areas. We send a proof before the fabric is made up.
How high must an awning be above the pavement?
It depends on the highway authority, but 2.3 to 2.75 m above the pavement is common, measured to the lowest point of the awning or valance. Most also want a clear gap from the kerb. We check with your authority before we set the position.
Can an awning stay out in the wind?
No, awnings should be retracted in high wind, as most are designed for shade and light rain. Wind sensors can retract motorised models automatically. BS EN 13561 gives wind resistance classes, so ask which class applies to your product.
