Trades we work with
What each kind of shop needs from its frontage and shutter.
TakeawaysA takeaway frontage has to work late, take heavy use and stay quiet enough for the flats above.
Convenience storesConvenience stores take more door movements than almost any other shop, and they hold stock that thieves want.
PharmaciesA pharmacy has to be easy for everyone to get into, and hard for anyone to break into.
Barbers and salonsFor a barber or salon, the frontage is the advert. People look in before they walk in.
Cafes and restaurantsA cafe or restaurant frontage has to sell the atmosphere, then lock up safely at the end of the night.
JewellersFor a jeweller the specification usually starts with the insurer, not the designer.
Off-licences and vape shopsSmall, high-value and easy to carry: off-licence, vape and phone shop stock attracts the wrong attention.
Landlords and paradesIf you own or manage several units, a single specification saves money every time a tenant changes.
Shopfitters and contractorsIf you are running a fit-out, one subcontractor for the frontage and shutter is one less interface to manage.
New retail unitsIf you are taking on a shop unit, the time to think about the frontage is before you sign the lease.
