Store fronts in the TD postcode area.

The TD postcode area covers Galashiels and the wider Scottish Borders region, taking in Galashiels, Hawick, Selkirk, Jedburgh, Kelso, Melrose, Berwick-upon-Tweed and Peebles. The TD postcode is at the edge of our standard service area. We cover it for projects that meet a minimum project size, with travel and accommodation factored into our quotes transparently.

What we install in the TD area.

Across the TD postcode we fit the full range of commercial frontage systems for retailers, restaurants, offices, industrial units and landlords:

• Aluminium store fronts — durable, low-maintenance, available in any RAL colour. The default specification for most Galashiels commercial premises.
• Glass shopfronts — frameless and minimal-frame toughened glass, ideal for premium retail and showrooms.
• Automatic doors — DDA-compliant sliding, swing and telescopic auto-doors for supermarkets, clinics and busy entrances.
• Roller shutters — insulated, perforated and solid-lath shutters for overnight security across Galashiels's commercial premises.
• Curtain walling — full-height structural glazing for offices and flagship retail.
• Timber shopfronts — hardwood frontages for conservation areas and listed buildings throughout Scottish Borders.
• uPVC frontages — cost-effective option for budget-conscious refurbishments.
• Security doors — PAS 24 and LPS 1175 certified doors for higher-risk premises.
• Fire doors — FD30 and FD60 certified doorsets, fitted by BWF-accredited installers.
• Repairs and emergency board-up — same-week response across the TD area.

Response and lead times.

Project-based service — minimum project value applies (typically £4,500+ for travel viability). Surveys arranged within 1–2 weeks.

Emergency response

Emergency repair service is best-efforts in this area — we'll always try, but response times depend on travel.

Planning context for Scotland.

Scottish planning rules differ in places from England — listed buildings and conservation areas across Scottish Borders typically require advertisement consent for new shopfront signage, and local authorities have varying tolerance for modern materials in heritage settings. We've worked through enough Scottish planning departments to know what flies and what doesn't.

Coverage detail — TD postcode area.

The TD postcode covers TD1–TD15, taking in: Galashiels, Hawick, Selkirk, Jedburgh, Kelso, Melrose, Berwick-upon-Tweed and Peebles. If your premises is on the edge of the postcode area or sits across two postcodes, we still cover it — postcode boundaries don't change our service area.

Why Galashiels businesses use Store Fronts UK.

Most of our work in the TD area comes through repeat business and word-of-mouth referrals. Three reasons clients tend to come back:

• One accountable team. We design, fabricate and fit in-house — no subcontractors, no agency fitters. If something needs sorting, you call us, not a chain of third parties.
• Fixed quotes. What's on the survey is what's on the invoice. No "the job took longer than expected" surprises.
• 10-year workmanship guarantee. If a seal fails, a hinge works loose or a shutter binds within a decade of our installation, we come back and fix it. No invoice, no arguments.
