How does it work in Shipley?
Shipley sits in West Yorkshire, and City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.
What makes the difference?
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 glass should go in?
Safety glass is needed in doors, side panels and low-level panes. Laminated glass is worth the extra if the street has a history of break-ins.
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 much will it cost?
| 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.

A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
