Working in Oldbury
Work in a trading unit has to fit around trading. Where the frontage cannot be out of action during opening hours, installation is booked overnight or on a closed day and the premises left secure at every stage.
Nothing is ordered until you have a written price and have agreed it. The survey costs you nothing and carries no obligation — plenty of people use it simply to find out what the job would involve before they budget for it.
If you already have drawings or a specification, send those over and we will price directly from them.
Questions from Oldbury
What guarantee comes with the work?
Installation is guaranteed for 12 months. Manufacturer warranties on hardware, motors and powder coating run longer and are passed to you in writing on completion.
Is the survey really free?
Yes, and there is no obligation attached to it. A number of people book one purely to get a realistic figure before they commit to a lease or set a refurbishment budget.
Do you fit shutters to an existing shopfront?
Usually yes, provided the lintel will take the load and there is headroom for the barrel. That is one of the first things checked at survey.
How much does a shopfront cost in Oldbury?
It depends on the opening width, the material and whether the existing frontage needs stripping out. As a guide, an aluminium frontage on a standard single unit usually starts around £2,450 plus VAT. The survey gives you a fixed written figure rather than a range.
How long does installation take?
A straightforward shopfront is one to two days on site once manufactured. Manufacturing is typically three to four weeks from the point you approve the drawings. Shutters alone are usually a single day.
