What happens in Covent Garden?
A frontage in Covent Garden has to suit the street as well as the shop. City of Westminster decides what is acceptable where planning applies, so we draw with that in mind.
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.
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.
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.
What should you budget?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |
