Bi-folding shopfronts in Wellingborough start from about £5,200 plus VAT for a standard opening, with a free survey and a written quotation before anything is ordered.
For Wellingborough shops and offices, we start by measuring the actual opening, not a photo and the bi-folding shopfronts are then made to those dimensions.
Permission and North Northamptonshire Council
The local planning authority for Wellingborough is North Northamptonshire Council. Replacing an existing frontage in the same style seldom needs permission, though external shutters and lit signs normally need approval. We check which applies to your unit at survey.
What it costs in Wellingborough
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.
Lead times
Expect 4-5 weeks after drawing sign-off for manufacture. Fitting a standard Wellingborough unit is normally one to two days on site. Closed-day or out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Specification notes
Folding the whole frontage back turns the glass line into open trading space, so pavement seating reads as part of the room. You can specify heavy-duty running gear for commercial cycles; leaves stack neatly to one or both sides.

FAQs
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.
How much does bi-folding shopfronts cost in Wellingborough?
Bi-folding shopfronts start from around £5,200 plus VAT for a standard opening. The exact figure depends on the width, height, finish and access, and comes from a free site survey as a written, itemised quotation.
Do I need planning permission in Wellingborough?
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 North Northamptonshire Council. We tell you which applies at survey.
