The short version
How we work
SK Shopfronts supplies and installs aluminium shopfronts, frameless glass shopfronts, timber shopfronts, steel shopfronts and more for commercial premises across 12 Midlands counties. Every job starts with a free site survey and an itemised written quotation. SK Shopfronts is a trading name of S&K Glazing Limited, part of the S&K Group.
We spend time on the design conversation, because a small business usually only replaces its frontage once. Samples, colours and door options are talked through before anything is ordered.

Before you book
Is the survey really free?
Yes. The survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead with the quotation.
Who will I be dealing with?

Can the work be done outside opening hours?
Yes. Closed-day or out-of-hours installation can be arranged when the business cannot close.
Do I need planning permission?
Like-for-like replacement usually does not. A changed appearance, an external roller shutter or an illuminated sign usually needs consent from your council. We tell you which applies at survey.
How much does a new aluminium shopfront cost?
Aluminium shopfronts start from around £2,450 plus VAT for a standard opening. The exact figure comes from a free survey as an itemised written quotation, valid for 90 days.
