Aberdeenshire is a county of granite houses and farm steadings built for exposed north-east weather. That is exactly the kind of building stock a stallriser has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
The difference between a fitted job and a fitted-looking job is the setting out. For stallrisers in Aberdeenshire we rod the job first, so what arrives on site already accounts for the bows, the skirting and the ceiling line.
How we build it
Hardware is specified to the weight it is carrying, not to a price point. Soft-close runners are rated for the drawer load, hinges are adjustable in three planes, and sliding gear is sized so a full-height door still moves with one finger a decade later.
Finish and materials
Every finished job gets a short handover: what the surface is, how to clean it, and how to adjust a hinge if a door drops after the heating has been on for a season. Adjustment is normal in timber and takes about two minutes once you know which screw to turn.

Straight answers
Stallrisers in Aberdeenshire — common questions
Should it be ventilated behind?
Yes. A sealed stallriser traps moisture against the back face and rots outward, which is why so many look fine from the street until you press them.
Does it need to take a security shutter?
If a shutter is planned we detail the bottom rail and the fixing points for it during the build, rather than drilling into finished joinery afterwards.
What is a stallriser?
The panelled section between pavement and display glass. It protects the glazing from knocks and keeps the bottom of the window out of the splash zone.
What is the best material for a stallriser?
A hardwood frame with a moisture-tolerant panel. This is the wettest part of any shopfront — splash off the pavement plus cleaning water — so an untreated panel here will fail first.
Do you charge for the survey and drawings?
The measured survey and the quotation are free. If you want fully detailed manufacturing drawings or a 3D visual before committing, that is chargeable and the fee comes off the job if you proceed.
