Timber shop fronts in Berkshire
We look at your existing Berkshire joinery first, because sound sills, pilasters or brackets on older buildings in the South East can often be repaired and kept.
A painted timber front can change colour with your brand, which helps when a Berkshire unit is relet or a business in the South East rebrands. Timber can suit an older building, so we match mouldings and proportions on your Berkshire premises and do not offer a stock pattern.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Berkshire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Berkshire, including Bracknell, Maidenhead, Newbury, Reading.
Can you repair my timber shopfront instead of replacing it?
Often, yes. Rotten sills, rails and glazing bars can usually be cut out and spliced. Repair work starts with a charged diagnostic visit, from £125 ex VAT, and we tell you the cost before we come out, then advise whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
How often does a timber shop front need painting?
Plan for repainting every few years, depending on exposure and the paint system. South-facing and coastal fronts need attention sooner. Check the sills and bottom rails each year, and touch up any chips before water gets into the joints.
Is a timber shop front secure?
It can be, when the door is well built and the locks suit the use. A BS 3621 mortice deadlock is common on timber shop doors, and laminated glass adds resistance. Your insurer may set conditions, so check the policy before we specify hardware.
