Shopfronts & entrances
Timber shopfronts
Timber shopfronts are traditional hardwood frontages for period and conservation parades. You get a free survey, an itemised quotation and an installation date that suits the business.
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.
Why SK Shopfronts
Multi-unit landlords, contractors and growing retailers use us because one contract covers the frontage, the security and the entrance. One programme, one point of contact, one set of O&M documents at handover.
