Bi-folding shopfronts across Telford
Bi-folding shopfronts in Telford start from about £5,200 plus VAT for a standard opening, with a free survey and a written quotation before anything is ordered.
If your premises are in Telford, a surveyor measures the unit before anything is priced so the bi-folding shopfronts arrive made to fit.
Timescales
Manufacture usually takes 4-5 weeks after drawing sign-off. On site, most Telford jobs take one or two days. Early starts and closed-day fitting are both possible.
What gets fitted
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.

What it costs in Telford
Budget from £5,200 plus VAT as a starting point. Width, height, finish and access move the final figure. Once issued, the price is fixed for 90 days unless the specification changes.
