How does it work in Deal?
Most shop owners come to us at one of three points: a new lease, a break-in, or a frontage that has finally given up. In each case the first step is a survey, and we cover postcodes including CT14 and CT13.
What should you check before you decide?
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.
Can it have a shutter later?
Yes, but it is far neater to allow for one now. Tell us at survey, and we will leave height behind the fascia even if the shutter comes later.
What are the guide prices?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission in Deal?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Dover District Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
What do people ask about aluminium shopfronts in Deal?
How soon can you fit an aluminium shopfront in Deal?
Lead time is 3 to 4 weeks after drawing sign-off. We book the fitting days around your trading.
Does a new shopfront in Deal need planning permission?
A change to how the frontage looks usually does. Dover District Council is the council to check with, and we advise at survey.
Can you add a shutter to the new shopfront?
Yes, and it is best planned now. We can price the frontage and shutter as one job.
What colours can I have?
Any RAL colour in powder coat. Anthracite, black, white and navy are the common choices.
