UK Glazing Business Website Development

We are looking for an experienced website designer/developer to build a professional, modern and mobile-friendly website for our UK-focused windows and doors business.

ABOUT THE BUSINESS

We supply made-to-measure glazing products to customers throughout the UK.

Our main products include:

* Aluminium Bifold Doors
* Aluminium French Doors
* Aluminium Single Doors
* Aluminium Sliding Doors
* Composite Doors
* uPVC Doors
* Aluminium Windows
* uPVC Windows
* Heritage Doors & Windows

The main purpose of the website is to professionally showcase our products and generate quotation requests from UK customers.

REFERENCE WEBSITE

We like the overall structure, product presentation and customer journey of:

https://glassopenings.co.uk/

This is only a reference for inspiration. We do NOT want an exact copy. We want an original website with our own branding, content, products and design.

WEBSITE GOAL

The primary goal is lead generation.

Customers should be able to:

1. Browse our product categories
2. View detailed individual products
3. See product specifications and available options
4. Enter their measurements and requirements
5. Submit a quotation request
6. Contact us through WhatsApp, email or phone

We do NOT need a full online checkout/payment system initially.

However, the website should be built in a way that allows online pricing, product configuration and e-commerce to be added in the future.

MAIN PAGES

The first version should include:

* Home
* Products
* Product Categories
* Individual Product Pages
* About Us
* Get a Quote
* Contact Us
* FAQ / Help Centre
* Technical / Downloads
* Delivery Information
* Warranty / Quality
* Reviews / Testimonials
* Blog / Advice section for future SEO

PRODUCT PAGES

Each product page should professionally display:

* Product images and gallery
* Product name
* Product description
* Product specifications
* Available colours
* Available sizes
* Glass options
* Configuration options
* Technical information
* Warranty information
* Delivery information
* Technical documents/PDFs where applicable
* Clear Request a Quote button

QUOTE / CONFIGURATION SYSTEM

This is one of the most important features.

We want a measurement-led quotation form.

For example, for an aluminium bifold door, customers may select:

* Product
* Width
* Height
* Number of panels
* Colour
* Opening direction
* Glass option
* Threshold
* Cill
* Additional requirements
* Customer name
* Email
* Phone
* Postcode
* Additional message
* Optional image/drawing upload

Different products should be able to have different options.

The system does not need to calculate the final price initially. The submitted enquiry should be sent to us so we can review the requirements and provide the quotation.

ENQUIRY MANAGEMENT

We would like enquiries to:

* Be sent to our business email
* Be stored in the website/admin panel if possible
* Include all measurements and selected options
* Include uploaded files/images
* Include customer contact information

The customer should receive a simple confirmation after submitting the enquiry.

DESIGN

We want a premium, clean and professional design suitable for a UK glazing company.

The website should look like an established professional business rather than a generic template.

Important design priorities:

* Professional product photography
* Clean navigation
* Strong typography
* Good spacing
* Clear CTAs
* Premium product cards
* Easy-to-use quotation flow
* Trust-building sections
* Excellent mobile experience

MOBILE RESPONSIVENESS

The website must work properly on:

* Desktop
* Laptop
* Tablet
* Mobile

The mobile experience is extremely important because many customers will access the website from their phones.

SEO

We need a basic SEO-friendly website structure including:

* SEO-friendly URLs
* Page titles
* Meta descriptions
* Proper H1/H2 structure
* Image ALT text
* Sitemap
* Robots.txt
* Google Search Console
* Google Analytics
* Mobile optimisation
* Good page speed

The website will target customers throughout the UK.

TECHNICAL / DOWNLOADS SECTION

We have technical documents which may include:

* Technical drawings
* Product specifications
* Installation guides
* Certificates
* Performance information
* Brochures

We want a dedicated section where these documents can be uploaded and accessed by customers.

FAQ / HELP CENTRE

We want an easy-to-manage FAQ section covering topics such as:

* Measurements
* Product sizes
* Colours
* Glass
* Delivery
* Lead times
* Installation
* Warranty
* Ordering
* Made-to-measure products

ADMIN PANEL / CMS

We need to be able to manage the website ourselves.

The CMS should allow us to:

* Add/edit products
* Change product images
* Edit product descriptions
* Update specifications
* Add/remove product options
* Update prices if required
* Manage enquiries
* Edit FAQs
* Upload technical PDFs
* Add blog posts
* Update general website content

We are open to WordPress, Shopify, PHP or another suitable platform.

We want the developer to recommend the best platform for our requirements and explain why.

WHATSAPP & CONTACT

The website should include:

* WhatsApp integration
* Contact form
* Email
* Phone
* Social media links
* UK delivery/service information

PERFORMANCE & SECURITY

The website should be:

* Fast loading
* Secure
* Mobile optimised
* Properly backed up
* Using optimised images
* Using clean development practices
* Free from unnecessary plugins or software

FUTURE EXPANSION

The website should be structured so we can later add:

* Automatic product pricing
* Advanced product configurator
* Online ordering
* Online payments
* Customer accounts
* Delivery calculation
* Automated quotations
* Additional product categories

OUR CONTENT

We already have our:

* Company branding/logo
* Product information
* Product images
* Specifications
* Technical documents
* Business information

We can provide these to the selected developer.

TIMELINE

We would like the website completed and live as soon as possible.

Our target is approximately 2–3 weeks for the first complete version, provided quality is not compromised.

BUDGET

Our maximum budget is approximately:

₹80,000 INR / around US$850

We are looking for the best value rather than simply the cheapest developer.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Please apply only if you have relevant experience.

Preferred experience:

* UK-focused websites
* Product catalogue websites
* E-commerce websites
* Quote/enquiry systems
* Product configurators
* Windows/doors/glazing/construction websites
* WordPress/WooCommerce or other suitable CMS
* Responsive website design
* SEO-friendly development

Please include examples of similar websites you have built.

In your proposal, please tell us:

1. Which platform you recommend and why
2. Your total project price
3. Estimated completion time
4. Examples of similar projects
5. What is included in your price
6. Any hosting/plugin/theme/licensing costs
7. Whether post-launch support is included
8. Whether you can build the measurement-based quotation system
9. Whether you can handle the project from design through development and launch

IMPORTANT

Please do not send a generic copy-paste proposal.

We want someone who has actually read and understood the requirements and can recommend the right technical solution.

The final website should be original, professional and designed specifically for our UK windows and doors business, using Glass Openings only as a reference for the overall product catalogue and customer journey.
