How does it work in Catford?
Whether the unit is on the main shopping street or a local parade in Catford, the job is measured the same way, and London Borough of Lewisham is the council to check with.
What should you check before you decide?
What affects the price most?
Width, the number of doors, glass type and any strip-out. A second door or a laminated upgrade moves the figure more than the colour does.
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.
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?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Do you need consent in Catford?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but London Borough of Lewisham has the final say. 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 steel shopfronts in Catford?
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 steel shopfront in Catford?
Lead time is 5 to 6 weeks after drawing sign-off. We book the fitting days around your trading.
Does a new shopfront in Catford need planning permission?
A change to how the frontage looks usually does. London Borough of Lewisham is the council to check with, and we advise at survey.
Does steel rust?
Not if the finish is right and stays intact. It is galvanised or primed, then powder coated.
