Oxford pairs the modern Westgate centre with one of England's most protected historic streetscapes — Cornmarket, the High Street and the Covered Market sit inside the Central Conservation Area covering the entire retail core. We fit contemporary frontages at Westgate and Cowley Road, and conservation-appropriate designs where the historic streets require them.

Cowley Road's independents and Westgate's flagships book the modern work; everything inside the ring of colleges is a heritage conversation first. Around Westgate Oxford, Cornmarket Street, the High Street & Covered Market and Cowley Road, and across Abingdon, Bicester, Witney, Didcot, Banbury, we design, fabricate and fit complete frontages with a typical on-site installation of just 1–3 days.

What does a shop front cost in Oxford?

Aluminium shopfronts average around £350 per m² installed (2025–26 price guides), with most complete projects between £2,500 and £7,350 depending on size, glazing specification and doors. Laminated security glass, automatic doors and roller shutters move the price; ordering shutters with the frontage typically saves on labour. Every Oxford project starts with a free, no-obligation site survey and a fully itemised quote.

Planning permission and conservation areas in Oxford

The Central (City and University) Conservation Area means listed college and Georgian frontages throughout the core — designs that respect proportion and materials clear planning far faster, and we prepare those applications routinely. Like-for-like repairs generally avoid planning permission, but new or altered frontages usually need consent from Oxford City Council, and illuminated signs need separate advertisement consent. We prepare the drawings and manage the process — read the consents section of our aluminium shopfront buyer's guide for the full picture.

London-based, working nationwide. No travel surcharge — we quote for the installation, not the journey. We bring the team and fabricated frontage directly to you, with out-of-hours fitting available so you never lose a trading day.
