Frameless tempered glass entrances, glass storefront doors and sliding glass doors repaired: patch fittings, top pivots, floor closers, locks, handles and broken glass. Same-day service for businesses across Toronto and the GTA.
All-glass entrances are popular in offices, retail, salons and condo lobbies because they look clean and open. Behind that look is a set of precise fittings: patch fittings that clamp the glass, a top pivot in the header, a floor closer or pivot in the slab, and often a lock rail at the bottom. When any one of them wears or loosens, the heavy glass panel drops, rubs or stops closing.
We repair the fittings, closers and locks on frameless glass doors, replace broken glass, and service glass storefront and sliding doors. If the glass has shattered, we secure the opening the same day.
A worn floor closer spindle, a loose bottom patch fitting or a worn top pivot lets the glass drop. We replace or tighten the fitting and re-set the door.
Floor closers in glass doors leak and lose control. We repair or replace the closer and set closing speed. See commercial door closer repair.
Fittings rely on gaskets and clamping pressure. Worn gaskets let the fitting slip, which can crack the glass. We replace gaskets and re-clamp properly.
Lock rails and patch locks stop catching when the door drops. Re-aligning the door fixes most lock issues.
Back-to-back ladder pulls loosen and can damage the glass holes. We re-mount or replace them.
We board up and order tempered glass to the exact size and hole pattern. See glass repair and replacement.
Thick tempered glass panels held only by patch fittings and pivots. Common in offices, retail and condo lobbies. The glass cannot be cut or drilled after tempering, so replacement panels are made to order.
Glass held in an aluminum frame with stiles and rails. Repairs usually involve pivots, hinges, closers and narrow-stile locks. See storefront door repair in Toronto.
Manual and automatic sliding doors in retail and lobbies. Rollers, tracks, guides and locks wear with use. See automatic door repair.
Glass suite and boardroom doors with patch fittings or rail systems, often with access control. See electric strike and mag lock repair.
Shattered tempered glass breaks into small pieces that keep falling. We clear the opening and board it up so the business can stay secure. Our commercial board-up service runs 24/7.
We record the exact size, thickness and hole or notch pattern for the patch fittings and handles.
Tempered glass is fabricated to order, so there is a lead time. We keep you updated and the opening stays secured meanwhile.
The new panel is installed with fresh gaskets, the closer and pivots are checked, and the door is adjusted to close and lock correctly.
Glass used in doors must be safety glazing, such as tempered or laminated glass. We always replace with the correct type for the door.
Understanding the hardware helps you spot problems early and explains why we repair rather than replace in most cases.
The top patch clamps the upper corner of the glass and holds the pivot pin that sits in the header. When the pivot bushing wears, the top of the door wobbles side to side and the gap at the top grows uneven.
The bottom patch clamps the lower corner and sits on the floor closer spindle. It carries the full weight of the glass. If the spindle wears or the patch slips, the door drops and rubs the floor or the threshold.
Set into a steel box in the concrete, the floor closer controls opening and closing. It is exposed to mop water and winter slush, which is why floor closers in Toronto entrances leak and rust sooner than you might expect.
Glass doors lock at the bottom into a floor strike or at the side into a strike in the jamb. Even a small drop of the door throws the lock out of line.
Pairs of frameless glass doors with floor closers, often with maglocks and access control. Traffic is heavy at rush hour and doors are frequently held open, which loads the closers and pivots.
Glass vestibule doors with fob release, enterphone and accessible operators. A failing vestibule door affects every resident, so condo managers need fast repairs. See accessible door operator installation.
Single glass entrance doors with patch locks and pull handles. These are often the first impression of the business, so a door that sags or does not close properly matters.
Glass suite doors and partitions where privacy, access and acoustics matter.
Tempered glass is heat-treated so it is much stronger than ordinary glass and breaks into small, blunt pieces. It is the standard for frameless doors. Laminated glass has a plastic interlayer that holds the glass together when it breaks, which improves security and keeps the opening closed after an impact. Laminated glass is often chosen for storefront panels after a break-in. We advise on the right glass for your door and its location.
The floor closer spindle, bottom patch fitting or top pivot has worn or loosened, letting the panel drop. Replacing or tightening the fitting fixes it.
No. Tempered glass cannot be cut after tempering. The fix is in the fittings and pivots, or a new panel if the glass is damaged.
Tempered glass is made to order, so allow some lead time. We secure the opening until it arrives.
