Shop awnings and blinds in Somerset
Cafes in the South West can use an awning to give outdoor tables some shelter, subject to any licence your Somerset premises need.
A motor with a wind sensor suits staff who are too busy to watch the weather, and owners across the South West can add one to a Somerset order. A traditional blind can suit a period building, so owners in the South West can ask us to match a fascia box to their Somerset premises.

Which towns do you cover?
Common questions
Do you cover all of Somerset?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Somerset, including Bath, Bridgwater, Frome, Glastonbury.
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.
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.
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.
