For businesses in Oakham, the first step is a free site survey which is how the bi-folding shopfronts end up the right size.
Lead times
Manufacture usually takes 4-5 weeks after drawing sign-off. The install itself rarely takes more than two days for a standard opening. 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. Options include heavy-duty running gear for commercial cycles; leaves stack neatly to one or both sides.

Local planning
Rutland County Council decides planning in Oakham. Swapping like for like is usually fine, but anything that alters the look of the street usually needs consent. We flag it at survey so it never delays the fit.
Costs
The entry price is about £5,200 plus VAT. Size, specification and strip-out decide the exact number. Once issued, the price is fixed for 90 days unless the specification changes.
Before you book
Can you match the units either side?
On a parade where the landlord wants a consistent frontage, we work to the same section profile and colour reference so the unit reads as part of the row.
What do you need from me to quote?
The address, roughly what you want, and a photo of the current frontage. Opening sizes help but are not essential, because we measure at survey anyway.

Like-for-like replacements usually do not. Changing the appearance of the frontage, fitting an external roller shutter or adding an illuminated sign usually needs consent from Rutland County Council. We tell you which applies at survey.
