How does it work in Hackney?
Working in Hackney means working with London Borough of Hackney on planning, and sometimes with a landlord on the lease. We flag both early, so that neither one holds up your opening date.
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.
How do you deal with the threshold?
We aim for level or near-level access. New doors need thought about wheelchair and pushchair users, and we check the floor before we promise anything.
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.
What should you budget?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 3 m | A typical single shop unit | £3,600 to £5,995 |
| 3 to 4 m | A wider single unit | £4,695 to £7,795 |
| 4 to 5 m | A double-fronted or corner unit | £5,895 to £9,695 |
| 5 to 6 m | A large double unit | £7,195 to £11,995 |
Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission in Hackney?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to London Borough of Hackney. 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 Hackney?
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 Hackney?
Lead time is 5 to 6 weeks after drawing sign-off. We book the fitting days around your trading.
Do you cover the postcodes around Hackney?
Yes, including E8, E9 and E5.
Is steel stronger than aluminium for a shopfront?
Yes, section for section. It also lets you keep glazing bars slim while holding heavier glass.
