What should you check before you decide?
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.
Can I keep trading during the work?
Often, in part. Fitting days can be planned for your quiet days, and closed-day or out-of-hours work can be arranged.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Kirkcaldy?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Fife Council. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
What do people ask about steel shopfronts in Kirkcaldy?
Does a new shopfront in Kirkcaldy need planning permission?
A change to how the frontage looks usually does. Fife Council is the council to check with, and we advise at survey.
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 Kirkcaldy?
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.
