Bi-folding shopfronts across Leicester
Bi-folding shopfronts in Leicester start from about £5,200 plus VAT for a standard opening, with a free survey and a written quotation before anything is ordered.
Across Leicester, we survey the opening before any price is given and the bi-folding shopfronts are then made to those dimensions.
Permission and Leicester City Council
Planning in Leicester goes through Leicester City Council. Replacing an existing frontage in the same style seldom needs permission, whereas a new look, an outside shutter box or a lit fascia generally needs an application. We check which applies to your unit at survey.
Costs
The entry price is about £5,200 plus VAT. Size, specification and strip-out decide the exact number. Quotations stay valid for 90 days.
How long it takes
Allow 4-5 weeks after drawing sign-off from drawings to delivery. Fitting a standard Leicester unit is normally one to two days on site. Early starts and closed-day fitting are both possible.
The product
Folding the whole frontage back turns the glass line into open trading space, so pavement seating reads as part of the room. Common specifications: traffic door built into the run for daily use; heavy-duty running gear for commercial cycles.
Nearby
Our Leicester jobs sit within Leicestershire across the LE postcode district, which puts it on the same route as Melton Mowbray, Coalville and Market Harborough.
Common questions
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by our installation team and approved installers working under S&K Glazing Limited, which contracts with you and is responsible for the job.
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
Yes. We cover Leicester and the rest of Leicestershire, including Melton Mowbray, Coalville and Market Harborough.
What guarantee do I get?
Every installation comes with a written guarantee, and manufacturer warranties on hardware, motors and finishes are passed to you. The terms are set out on your quotation.
Can you match the units either side?
On a parade where the landlord wants a consistent frontage, we work to the same section profile and colour reference so the unit reads as part of the row.
