What should you check before you decide?
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 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.
Will this need planning permission in Westhill?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from Aberdeenshire Council. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.

Do you cover the postcodes around Westhill?
Yes, including AB32, AB13 and AB14.
Is steel stronger than aluminium for a shopfront?
Yes, section for section. It also lets you keep glazing bars slim while holding heavier glass.
