Timescales
Allow 4-5 weeks after drawing sign-off from drawings to delivery. On site, most Wellingborough jobs take one or two days. Closed-day or out-of-hours work can be arranged.
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. Popular choices include heavy-duty running gear for commercial cycles; leaves stack neatly to one or both sides.
