Curtain Walling in Leicester
Curtain Walling for premises across Leicester, a short drive from our base in Exhall.
What we do in Leicester
For showrooms, office receptions and new commercial buildings in Leicester, 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.
Leicester 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 Leicester
Oadby and Wigston have their own borough council, separate from Leicester City Council, and Birstall falls under Charnwood. If your shop is near the city boundary, we check which council handles planning before drawings go in.
Belgrave Road, known as the Golden Mile, is famous for jewellers, sari shops and sweet centres. Shops here hold valuable stock and trade long hours, so laminated glass, strong shutters and good locks are standard requests. Fronts are often wide and fully glazed to show off window displays.
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.
