What makes the difference?
Which colours work best?
Dark greys and black are the most requested because they frame the shop well. In a conservation area, ask us first, as colour can matter to the council.
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.
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 Kensington?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
