Storefront Glass Installation & Repair in Portland, OR

Portland storefronts deal with months of rain and a steady risk of break-ins and vandalism. We secure broken glass the same day, fix leaks and doors, and install new storefronts and security glass across the metro.

What happens when you call

Talk to a glazier

Tell us what broke or what you need built. We ask about glass type, opening size, frame condition and whether the space is secure.

Make it safe, then make it right

Broken openings are boarded or temporarily glazed first. Then the opening is measured and the permanent glass is ordered to fit.

Written scope, clean records

You get a line-item estimate and photos of the damage and the finished work for your landlord or insurance carrier.

Storefront glass in the Pacific Northwest

Portland’s long rainy season makes water management the first concern for any storefront. Rain is persistent rather than intense, and over months it finds every failed sealant joint, blocked weep and missing end dam. Leaks at sills, rotted or damaged interior finishes below the storefront, and foggy insulated units are common.

Portland also has a wide range of storefronts, from historic buildings in Old Town, the Pearl and the eastside commercial corridors to newer mixed-use buildings with large ground-floor glass.

Break-ins, vandalism and security glass

Many Portland businesses have dealt with repeated broken windows from break-ins and vandalism. Each time, the storefront has to be secured, cleaned up and reglazed, and the business loses time and money. We board up or temporarily glaze broken openings the same day and then install the permanent glass.

For businesses that keep getting hit, there are better options than replacing the same tempered glass again. Laminated glass holds together when struck, security film adds resistance to existing glass, and polycarbonate or security glazing can protect the most exposed openings. We will explain the options and costs honestly.

Leaks at the storefront

When a storefront leaks, we trace the water path rather than adding caulk to the glass. The usual causes are failed perimeter sealant, sill flashing problems, missing end dams or weeps blocked with dirt. Once the source is fixed, we test it.

Energy code and new storefronts

Oregon’s energy code applies when a storefront is replaced, and it requires high-performance insulated glass in thermally broken frames. We specify compliant systems from the start and handle permits with the city that has jurisdiction.
