Steel shop fronts Hertfordshire

A steel frontage needs a sound opening, so we check the lintel and fixing points on your Hertfordshire premises before any design work starts. If your Hertfordshire premises sit near the coast or in a damp spot in the East of England, we specify the coating or stainless grade to suit.

What do we offer in Hertfordshire?

Slim steel framingNarrow bars form a grid of panes, giving the dark-framed look often seen in warehouse conversions.

Stainless steel framesStainless sections suit food premises and coastal sites, with grade 316 the usual choice near the sea.

Security-rated steelFrames and doors can be specified to PAS 24 or LPS 1175 for premises with a higher risk of attack.

How much does it cost in Hertfordshire?

Budget £5,495 to £13,995 ex VAT for a typical frontage. Heavy frames need planning for delivery and lifting, so we look at road access, parking and pavement width outside your Hertfordshire shop. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Hertfordshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Hertfordshire, including Bishop's Stortford, Hatfield, Hemel Hempstead, Hertford.

Is a steel shop front better for security?

It can be, but only if the whole assembly is designed for it. Frame, glass, hinges and locks all have to work together. Tested products to PAS 24 or LPS 1175 show how a doorset performs, while a steel frame with ordinary glass adds very little.

Will a steel shop front rust?

Not if it is protected and looked after. External mild steel should be galvanised and powder coated, and any chips should be repaired before water reaches the metal. Near the sea, ask about grade 316 stainless, which copes better with salt, and rinse it down regularly.

Is steel stronger than aluminium for a shop front?

Yes, steel is much stiffer and stronger for the same section size. That allows slimmer bars over a given span, or taller glazing. The trade-off is weight: steel frames need stronger fixings, a solid opening and more people to lift them into place.
