Benefits and advantages of aluminium shop fronts:
Durability
Aluminium is renowned for its strength, resilience, and lightweight properties, making it the perfect material for aluminium shop fronts. Its corrosion resistance ensures a long lifespan, providing a cost-effective solution for businesses looking for a long-term investment.
Thermal performance
Our aluminium shop fronts are available in both thermally broken and non-thermally broken options. The thermal break technology improves energy efficiency by reducing heat loss, helping to lower heating costs and providing better insulation in all weather conditions.
Weatherproof
All our aluminium shop fronts meet BS6375-1 2015 standards, ensuring optimal air, water, and wind resistance. With their weatherproof properties, our shop fronts withstand harsh elements while maintaining peak performance, security, and structural integrity.
customisable aesthetic
As leading aluminium shop fronts manufacturers, we provide fully customisable options. Choose from single or double doors, swing or sliding mechanisms, and a variety of door ironmongery and glazing options. Additionally, our powder-coated finishes allow for precise colour matching to your branding, helping you maintain a cohesive and professional look.
Low maintenance
Thanks to its corrosion-resistant properties, aluminium shop fronts do not warp, crack, or fade over time. This ensures a low-maintenance solution that retains its aesthetic appeal for years with minimal upkeep.
Eco-Friendly
By choosing aluminium shop fronts, businesses are making an environmentally responsible choice. Aluminium is 100% recyclable, reusable, and energy-efficient in production, making it one of the most sustainable materials available.
