What happens in Carlisle?
Carlisle sits in Cumbria, and Cumberland Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.

What should you think about first?
Which glass should go in?
Safety glass is needed in doors, side panels and low-level panes. Laminated glass is worth the extra if the street has a history of break-ins.
Should the stallriser stay?
A stallriser protects the bottom of the glass from kicks, trolleys and cleaning water. On older streets it is also part of the look.
How is the frontage measured?
We measure the structural opening, not the old frame. Lintel condition, floor level and how square the opening is all get recorded at survey.
Do you need consent in Carlisle?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from Cumberland Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
