Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of South Yorkshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across South Yorkshire, including Barnsley, Doncaster, Maltby, Mexborough.

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.

Do I need planning permission for a steel shop front?

Usually yes in England, if it materially changes the look of the building. Industrial styling can be contentious on traditional streets, so raise it early. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and our drawings can support an application for the council to decide.
