Shopfronts
Engiglass provides aluminium, glass and stainless steel shopfront solutions for retail, commercial and public-facing properties across Manchester and Greater Manchester. We supply and install new shopfronts, replace damaged or outdated glazing, and repair existing shopfront doors and hardware.
From individual retail units and restaurants to offices and larger commercial developments, we provide shopfront solutions designed around the building, required performance and appearance of the property.
Aluminium shopfronts

Glass Shopfronts
Glass shopfronts maximise visibility while providing a clean and contemporary frontage for retail and commercial properties. We install both framed and frameless glass shopfront systems, with the glass specification selected according to the application.
Glass options include:

Glass shopfronts can be combined with aluminium or other framing systems and can incorporate commercial glass doors, fixed panels and opening sections.
Stainless Steel Shopfronts
Stainless steel shopfronts provide a robust and durable solution for high-traffic commercial environments. They are particularly suitable where strength, corrosion resistance and a distinctive finish are important.
We can provide stainless steel framing in different configurations and finishes, combined with suitable toughened or laminated glass.

Shopfront Glass Replacement
Damaged, broken or outdated shopfront glazing can often be replaced without replacing the complete shopfront system. We measure and supply replacement glass to suit the existing frame and application.
Depending on the requirements of the property, replacement glazing can include toughened or laminated safety glass and other specialist specifications.
Shopfront glazing work includes:
-
Broken shopfront glass replacement
-
Damaged glass panel replacement
-
Laminated safety glass
-
Toughened safety glass
-
Glass upgrades
-
Replacement of individual panels
-
Glass replacement within existing aluminium frames
Shopfront Door Repairs
We also repair existing shopfront doors and associated hardware. Where the frame and door are suitable for continued use, repairing the faulty component can be a practical alternative to replacing the complete entrance.
Our shopfront door repair work includes:
Door alignment
Hinges
Door closers
Handles
Locks and locking mechanisms
Floor springs
Door hardware
Replacement glass where required
We assess the existing door and identify the cause of the problem before recommending the appropriate repair.
