Do you need consent?
West Northamptonshire Council decides planning in Northampton. Swapping like for like is usually fine, though external shutters and lit signs normally need approval. We flag it at survey so it never delays the fit.
How much?
Bi-folding shopfronts start at around £5,200 plus VAT. Width, height, finish and access move the final figure. The written quotation is valid for 90 days.
From order to fitted
Allow 4-5 weeks after drawing sign-off from drawings to delivery. Fitting a standard Northampton unit is normally one to two days on site. If you cannot close, we can work outside trading hours.
The product
Folding the whole frontage back turns the glass line into open trading space, so pavement seating reads as part of the room. You can specify leaves stack neatly to one or both sides; low-profile threshold when open.
