How does it work across the West Midlands?
Our teams cover Birmingham, Coventry, Wolverhampton and Dudley and the rest of the West Midlands. If your shop is in a conservation area or a listed building, tell us at the start, because it changes the options. Birmingham has the Soho Road and city-centre units, the Black Country has the high streets of Walsall, Dudley and West Bromwich, and Coventry and Wolverhampton are large centres. It is also home ground: our base is at Great Barr.
What should you check before you decide?
Who is responsible if something goes wrong?
One company. Your contract is with S&K Glazing Limited for both parts, so nobody can point at the other contractor.
How does a joint install save trading time?
The frontage and shutter go in as one sequence, so you close once. With two contractors, you close twice and hope they agree on who damaged what.
What decides the final package price?
Width, height, frame material, curtain type, and whether the box can be hidden. Access and strip-out are the other two things that move the price.
What should you budget?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission across the West Midlands?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so your council will normally expect a planning application. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.

Who decides planning for a frontage across the West Midlands?
Your council is the planning authority. We tell you at survey what is likely to need consent.
How long does a package take across the West Midlands?
For aluminium and steel frontages, usually 3 to 6 weeks from drawing sign-off. Other materials are confirmed on your quotation.
Can you fit a package around my trading hours across the West Midlands?
Yes. Closed-day or out-of-hours fitting can be arranged.
Can an engineer still reach a hidden shutter?
Yes, if it is designed properly. We fit a removable panel, because safety parts have to be reachable for servicing.
