Shopfront services for London retail and commercial properties
British Shopfronts supports businesses that need made-to-measure shopfronts, entrance doors, glazing and roller shutter options. Each project should be assessed around the opening, property access, preferred materials and the level of supply or installation support required.
Aluminium shopfronts
Aluminium frames are a practical option for many retail and commercial frontages. Door layout, glazing, finish and hardware are confirmed after survey and quotation.
Glass shopfronts
Glass-led frontages can support display visibility and a cleaner entrance appearance. Suitability depends on the opening, glass specification, fittings and access requirements.
Roller shutters
Roller shutters can be considered with a shopfront where security, privacy, airflow or after-hours visibility are important. The best type depends on the premises and specification.
Survey, design and installation process
Start by sending photographs, the property postcode, approximate dimensions and the type of work required. British Shopfronts can then advise whether a site survey, replacement, repair, supply-only quotation or supply-and-installation quotation is the right next step. Final scope, timing and inclusions should be confirmed in writing.
Areas covered
The business serves London enquiries and can consider selected UK projects where survey, delivery and installation arrangements are suitable. Availability outside London should be confirmed before relying on a timescale.
Shopfront FAQs
What information do I need for a shopfront quotation?
Send photos, approximate opening dimensions, the postcode, preferred material, door requirements and whether you need supply-only or installation. A survey may still be needed before final pricing.
Do you provide shopfront site surveys in London?
London site surveys can be discussed for suitable enquiries. Survey availability, access and any charge or inclusion should be confirmed when the quotation is arranged.
Which materials can British Shopfronts supply and install?
Common enquiries include aluminium, glass and timber-style shopfront options, plus entrance doors and roller shutters where suitable. Final specification is confirmed around the project.
Can you replace or repair an existing shopfront?
Existing frontage condition can be assessed before repair, adjustment, refurbishment or replacement is recommended. The right route depends on safety, access, damage and specification.
Do you install roller shutters with shopfronts?
Roller shutters can be planned alongside shopfront work where security or closure is required. Solid, perforated and grille-style options have different uses.
What affects the cost of a shopfront?
Cost depends on dimensions, materials, glazing, doors, finish, access, removal, shutter integration and installation requirements. The written quotation should confirm what is included.
Plan the right shopfront enquiry
For a faster, clearer quotation, send photos of the frontage, approximate dimensions, site location, access notes and whether the work is for a new installation, repair, replacement, shutters or entrance doors.

Shopfront quotation FAQs
What information helps with a quotation?
Clear photos, approximate measurements, the property location, access details and a short description of the required work help British Shopfronts advise the next step. Final details are confirmed in the quotation.
Is a site survey needed?
A survey or measurement review is usually needed before final specification, materials and price are confirmed.
Can repair and replacement be discussed together?
Yes. Repair, refurbishment and replacement options can be reviewed together, and repair or replacement may be recommended depending on condition.
Can shopfronts, doors and shutters be planned together?
Where suitable, entrance doors, glazing and roller shutters can be considered as part of the same opening so the quotation reflects the full requirement.
