What should you check before you decide?
How do you deal with the threshold?
We aim for level or near-level access. New doors need thought about wheelchair and pushchair users, and we check the floor before we promise anything.
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.
Do you need consent in King's Cross?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to your local council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
