Curtain walling
What you are buying with curtain walling: structural glazed facades for commercial and mixed-use buildings, made to the dimensions we take on site.
How it is made
Colours are matched to a RAL reference, so a brand colour or a landlord's parade colour can be followed exactly. The frame is fabricated to the measurements taken at survey, so it fits the opening first time. Door hardware is chosen with you: closer strength, lock type and handle style all go on the drawing.
Our approach
A frontage is the first thing a customer judges. We start with how you want the shop to look from across the street, then work back to the sections, glass and hardware that deliver it within the planning rules.
