What can you expect in Frome?
Working in Frome means working with Somerset Council on planning, and sometimes with a landlord on the lease. We flag both early, so that neither one holds up your opening date.

What makes the difference?
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 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.
How is the frontage measured?
We measure the structural opening, not the old frame. Lintel condition, floor level and how square the opening is all get recorded at survey.
Do you need consent in Frome?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from Somerset 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 steel shopfronts in Frome?
Do you cover the postcodes around Frome?
Yes, including BA11 and BA10.
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 Frome?
Lead time is 5 to 6 weeks after drawing sign-off. We book the fitting days around your trading.
Is steel stronger than aluminium for a shopfront?
Yes, section for section. It also lets you keep glazing bars slim while holding heavier glass.
