Around Leicester, the first step is a free site survey and the steel shopfronts are then made to those dimensions.
Timescales
Expect 5-6 weeks after drawing sign-off for manufacture. Fitting a standard Leicester unit is normally one to two days on site. We can fit on a day the business is shut.
The product
Steel takes an impact that aluminium will not, so it is the usual choice for units that have been targeted before or that sit on a late-night street. Popular choices include laminated glass options for attack resistance; crittall-style glazing bar patterns.

Local planning
