Timber shop fronts in Shropshire
A painted timber front can change colour with your brand, which helps when a Shropshire unit is relet or a business in the West Midlands rebrands.
Owners in Shropshire should budget for repainting, and we explain the upkeep a timber front needs before you choose it over aluminium. Timber can suit an older building, so we match mouldings and proportions on your Shropshire premises and do not offer a stock pattern.
What do we offer in Shropshire?
How much does it cost in Shropshire?
As a guide, allow £3,995 to £9,995 ex VAT for a typical frontage. We look at your existing Shropshire joinery first, because sound sills, pilasters or brackets on older buildings in the West Midlands can often be repaired and kept. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Shropshire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Shropshire, including Bridgnorth, Oswestry, Shrewsbury, Telford.
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.
Is timber allowed in a conservation area?
Yes, and it is often what the planning authority prefers. A material change to the frontage can still need planning permission in England, and rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. We can prepare the drawings for your application, and the council makes the decision.
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.
