North Yorkshire
Shop awnings and blinds in North Yorkshire
We inspect the wall at your North Yorkshire premises for strength, because a folding-arm awning pulls hard on its brackets.

Cafes in Yorkshire and the Humber can use an awning to give outdoor tables some shelter, subject to any licence your North Yorkshire premises need. Before ordering an awning in North Yorkshire, we check the height above the pavement and what the highway or roads authority expects.

Which towns do you cover?
Common questions
Do you cover all of North Yorkshire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across North Yorkshire, including Harrogate, Northallerton, Ripon, Scarborough.
Do I need planning permission for a shop awning?
Often yes in England, since an awning can change the appearance of the frontage, and lettering on it can need advertisement consent. Highway approval can also apply. Listed buildings need extra consent, and rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we check before ordering.
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 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.
