Curtain Walling in Birmingham
Curtain Walling for premises across Birmingham, a short drive from our base in Exhall.
What we do in Birmingham
For showrooms, office receptions and new commercial buildings in Birmingham, curtain walling gives floor-to-ceiling glass across wide spans.
We work from your building drawings and structural information, so frames and fixings suit the loads at your site, with fire-stopping at floor edges where it is needed.
Birmingham is one of our home areas, a short drive from the yard in Exhall, so surveys, fitting days and follow-up visits are easy to arrange.
Shopping streets and planning in Birmingham
For emergencies, such as a smashed window or a shutter stuck open overnight, Birmingham is one of the areas where we can usually reach you quickly. Call the emergency line and we will tell you an honest arrival time.
The city's high streets are a mix of Victorian parades, 1960s precincts and new developments. Soho Road in Handsworth, Stratford Road, Ladypool Road and Alum Rock Road are lined with busy independent shops where the front and shutter take a battering every day. We see a lot of worn springs, bent laths and dropped doors on these streets, and many fronts that are better repaired than replaced.
What you get from us
The same standard on every curtain walling job, whichever town it is in.
Large glazed areas
Floor-to-ceiling glass across wide spans, ideal for showrooms and receptions.
Designed for the site
Frames are sized for the wind load and fixings at your building, not chosen from a brochure.
Doors and vents built in
Entrance doors and opening windows sit in the same grid for a clean finish.
Fire-stopping included
Gaps at floor edges are sealed so the facade does not become a route for fire.
