IS IT GOING TO BE VERY COSTLY?

The first thing on everyone’s mind when in this position is going to be the cost of replacing a shop front, It is therefore refreshing to know that the initial financial outlay of the shop front will be more than recouped as you witness a higher sales and growth sales and profit to your business from increased footfall generated from your brand new shop front. The cost of replacing shop fronts these days is not as high as you would probably envisage as the cost of aluminium and glass has reduced over recent years. The additional cost benefits to your business will be labour savings, as the shop fronts are manufactured from glass they are really easy to keep clean and therefore no further costs are incurred for maintenance and the cleaning and upkeep should be no more than regular wipe over or a monthly clean from a local window cleaner. It is vitally important that the exterior of your premises are kept clean, tidy and free from dirt and debris.

WHICH TYPE OF SHOP FRONT WILL BENEFIT YOUR BUSINESS?

This is the next obvious question. Which type of shop front would be the most beneficial for your individual business? There are various options to choose from, shop fronts can be manufactured from steel, timber or aluminium and these days you can even have the option of a frameless glass shop front. By far the most popular is either an aluminium or frameless glass shop front. Aluminium is a cheaper material and is extremely versatile. It is a lightweight but very strong material which can be moulded to fit almost any shape or arc making it the ideal choice for most businesses. Because of its durability this material can withstand all weather conditions and will keep its smart appearance for very many years to come. If you have an old traditional property than you may want an old style timber frame but these properties are very few and far between. If your business is fashionable and classy a boutique within a shopping mall, an opticians, barbers or chemist you would probably select the ultra modern frameless glass option which is taking the market by storm.
