Quick Summary
Redwood Shopfront completed a curtain walling double glazed glass installation at 133-141 Morning Lane, London E9 6LH.
The project involved replacing cracked curtain walling glass and fitting large double glazed glass sections within the existing commercial frontage. The completed work gives the building a cleaner, smarter and more professional street-facing appearance while keeping the frontage bright, modern and visually open.
Curtain walling is a suitable option for commercial buildings that need large glazed sections, slim framing and a modern external finish.

What Redwood Shopfront Installed
For this project, Redwood Shopfront completed the installation of:
- Curtain walling glass
- Double glazed glass panels
- Large vertical glazed sections
- Black aluminium framed frontage finish
- Neat external finishing around the glazing
- Commercial glazing fitted to the site measurements
The installation was planned around the building opening, the existing frame layout and the need for a clean commercial finish.
Where a commercial property also needs matching entrance upgrades, side screens or frame work, Redwood can also supply and install aluminium windows and doors as part of a wider frontage improvement.
Before and After Result
Before the work was completed, the curtain walling glass was cracked and needed replacing. Damaged glass can affect the appearance of a commercial building and make the frontage look unfinished from street level.
After the installation, the new double glazed glass sections gave the building a cleaner, sharper and more modern appearance. The black frame finish works well with the building exterior and helps the glass sections look neat and professional.

Why Curtain Walling Was a Suitable Choice
Curtain walling is a good option for commercial properties that need larger glazed areas and a modern external finish. For this London E9 project, curtain walling helped create:
- A cleaner commercial frontage
- A more modern external appearance
- Larger glazed sections
- Better natural light through the frontage
- A stronger street-facing presentation
- A neat black aluminium frame finish
This made it suitable for a commercial building where appearance, visibility and long-term presentation were important.
Installation Approach
Every commercial glazing project needs accurate measurements, suitable materials and careful fitting. A curtain walling system must be installed around the actual building opening, frame layout and glass sizes. For this project, the work focused on:
- Measuring the frontage accurately
- Preparing the aluminium frame layout
- Installing the large double glazed glass sections
- Keeping the black frame finish neat and consistent
- Completing the external finish around the frontage
Redwood Shopfront also provides guidance on safety standards and compliance for commercial shopfronts, glazing systems, entrance doors and roller shutter installations.
