What is worth knowing?
What does the written quotation show?
Every item: frame, glass, doors, stallriser, strip-out and any electrics. It stays valid for 90 days, and nothing is ordered until you accept.
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.
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.
Do you need consent across Essex?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from your 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 frameless glass shopfronts across Essex?
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.
How soon can you fit a frameless glass shopfront across Essex?
Lead time is confirmed on your quotation. We book the fitting days around your trading.
Does a new shopfront across Essex need planning permission?
A change to how the frontage looks usually does. Your council is the council to check with, and we advise at survey.
Is a frameless shopfront secure?
It can be, with laminated glass and good locking. Many owners add an internal shutter or grille for out-of-hours security.
