Aluminium & glass shopfronts, roller shutters, curtain walling and repairs — free site survey in Newcastle.
Northumberland Street is one of the busiest shopping streets in the UK, and it sits right next to Grainger Town's Georgian streets — one of the highest concentrations of listed buildings anywhere in the country. We fit modern high-footfall frontages for the former and tightly controlled, heritage-appropriate designs for the latter, across Tyne and Wear.
The Grainger Town/Grey Street estate makes Newcastle one of the most heritage-regulated retail cores we work in — experience with consent applications counts. Around Northumberland Street, Eldon Square, Grainger Town and the Quayside, and across Gateshead, Sunderland, North Shields, Durham, Morpeth, we design, fabricate and fit complete frontages with a typical on-site installation of just 1–3 days.
Thermally broken, powder-coated frames in 213 RAL colours — the best-value modern frontage.
Toughened and frameless glass frontages for premium, high-visibility retail.
Conservation-friendly timber designs for heritage streets and listed settings.
Solid, perforated, punched-hole and grille shutters — supply, fit and repair.
Double-height and multi-storey glazed frontages for landmark units.
Glass replacement, shutter repair and on-site respraying in any RAL colour.
Aluminium shopfronts average around £350 per m² installed (2025–26 price guides), with most complete projects between £2,500 and £7,350 depending on size, glazing specification and doors. Laminated security glass, automatic doors and roller shutters move the price; ordering shutters with the frontage typically saves on labour. Every Newcastle project starts with a free, no-obligation site survey and a fully itemised quote.
Shopfront work in Grainger Town is tightly controlled — listed-building consent is often required on top of planning permission, and we prepare the drawings and heritage details that applications need. Like-for-like repairs generally avoid planning permission, but new or altered frontages usually need consent from Newcastle City Council, and illuminated signs need separate advertisement consent. We prepare the drawings and manage the process — read the consents section of our aluminium shopfront buyer's guide for the full picture.
We arrange free site surveys in Newcastle within a few days of your call — often sooner. Fabrication typically takes 2–4 weeks after the survey, and on-site installation of a standard front takes 1–3 days. We also cover Gateshead, Sunderland, North Shields and the surrounding area.
