Steel shopfronts in Leicester
Steel shopfronts in Leicester start from about £3,600 plus VAT for a standard opening, with a free survey and a written quotation before anything is ordered.
Around Leicester, we start by measuring the actual opening, not a photo so the steel shopfronts arrive made to fit.
Timescales
Expect 5-6 weeks after drawing sign-off for manufacture. On site, most Leicester jobs take one or two days. Closed-day or out-of-hours work can be arranged.
What gets fitted
Steel takes an impact that aluminium will not, so it is the usual choice for units that have been targeted before or that sit on a late-night street. Common specifications: crittall-style glazing bar patterns; pairs well with a roller shutter for two layers of delay.
Coverage
Our Leicester jobs sit within Leicestershire including the LE postcodes, which puts it on the same route as Melton Mowbray, Coalville and Market Harborough.
Local planning
Leicester City Council decides planning in Leicester. Replacing an existing frontage in the same style seldom needs permission, though external shutters and lit signs normally need approval. The survey confirms which rules apply.
Costs
Budget from £3,600 plus VAT as a starting point. Size, specification and strip-out decide the exact number. Once issued, the price is fixed for 90 days unless the specification changes.
Common questions
Can you work outside trading hours?
Yes, work can be arranged for a closed day or outside trading hours where the business cannot close. We agree it with you when booking.
Is the survey free?

How long is the quotation valid?

How do payments work?
A deposit is taken when you accept the quotation, a further stage payment on the first day of installation, and the balance on satisfactory completion. The exact split is set out on your quotation.
